that came with factory LT tires? What is the recommended tire pressure on the door post? It is not listed in the manual and the RV group did nothing but argue over blowing apart rims by overinflating (like DUH!!!!!!!!) and claiming that the Suburban never came from the factory with LT tires as an option (they looked at NEW 2006 PICKUP OPTIONS) : ( Thanks.
I bought my '99 Suburban 2500 in 2004 from a local Volkswagen dealer. In negotiating with them, I had noticed that they had put these little "P" tires on it. I believe they had a max load rating of 1600 lbs..
That wasn't even enough capacity to cover the curb weight of the 'Burb. So I pointed out to them that this was an unsafe condition and I was going to have to have the tires changed immediately. I bought it to tow a travel trailer, so the tire change was mandatory.
So I got them to take $600 off the price of the 'Burb so I could get the correct Load Range "E" tires as specified in the door jamb.
I had the tires put on it the weekend after I took it home.
