Ya'll are not answering the question. Where is Matt Collie when we need him?

Yes, LT tires have stiffer sides and whatnot and would be preferred for a lot of reasons, But there are P tires that will carry the weight, either four under a Sprinter or six under a GMC.

People do put P tires on a sprinter if the load is light and to reduce noise. And people say it's a bad idea. I want a better understanding of why.
