LR D or LR E? That is the Question...

My front shocks got weak and chopped my tires badly. I want BFG At Ko's BUT I need to have owl's. Only the D comes in owl's, not the E. What experience have any of you had with the ATko or at least using the D range tire?

Thakns for your input.

If you tow, don't even consider the D load range.

If you don't tow, you can probably get away with it, but keep in mind the reason why the Excursion's original Firestone tires were recalled was because they were D's and couldn't support the Excursion adequately.

Take it for what it's worth, but I don't tow with my Ex and I run load range E's and nothing else but E's.
