My man, my man, you need a light truck tire with a reinforced sidewall. Don't waste money on those low-end tires. You will have the best results with Bridgestone or Michelin in LT series. Depending on how aggressive a tread pattern you need.

Call the people at Tirerack.com too, they should confirm

Do not, I repeat, do not trust "non-Vanagon" people on advice for something this important.

Just my .02 worth
