275/70-18's in SL or C Load Rating?

I updated the list since it seems like TireRack updated the weight on the Pirelli Scorpion XTM AT's to 50lbs which seems about right to me.

I'm on the fence right now between the Pirelli's and Nitto's just wish there were more reviews for the Scorpion's as I like the sidewalls on it more than the Nitto's.

Just had the Pirelli XTM AT installed yesterday in 275/70/18 SL load drove about 50mi so far and ride just as smooth as the stock tires, no loss of MPG these weigh 48lbs per pirelli, also walmart has discounted at the moment, which Discount Tire beat, paid $275 per tire plus tax. I was originally gonna get the Falken R/T at a deal of $285 per fire but was concerned about the E load riding rough.

I got the Yokohama Geolandar A/T4 in 275/70R18. Their overall diameter is slightly larger than the rest, but their weight is less at 43lbs each (in SL). They were $262 a piece at discount tire with a 65,000 mile warranty. I like them a lot so far. There is a bit of a hum between 35-50mph on smooth roads, but after talking to a lot of people and reading a lot of reviews, switching to a different AT would likely be louder. Not an aggressive looking design, but I like them. Here's what they look like on trailhunter wheels which are 18" with a +20mm offset. And here's a review on them.

A couple more of those 43lb 275 yokos with closer look @ tread pattern. Been driving around quite a bit, up some bumpy service road etc, and really loving the ride. Seems like people are sleeping on these!

Those are stock tires on our ‘24 Outback Wilderness and the wagon handles very well for its size. The wagon has 20K miles and tread depth was ok when we checked recently.

Yep, we’re in agreement over here. For context, it’s the greater Southern California / Central Coast area, mild temperatures, but we tow a small trailer, which loaded is less than 2,000 lbs.
Tacoma tows way better.

My wife's OEM Wrangler's Bridgestone Dueller ATs we just changed out at 50K, had another 10k left likely. Pretty solid for an OEM too. That thing goes all over the place on all sorts of terrain in the summer.
