Got nowhere to keep anything. That's why I'm trying to get a house, more room for all my shit. The main thing I need are the seat belt bottoms. |

Does the Ply Rating of a tire make a difference? Say one is 6, the other 10? |

10 ply is more for towing the sidewall is much less flexy...but never hurts to have a tough as nails tire...

So it'd be better off getting the tire for the 16.5" rim since it has more plys? Does that mean it will last longer? |

Gotcha. I don't want to spend unnecessary money if I don't have to. If they're not going to last longer, I can't see the point, I don't tow with it. I might just screw waiting to pay cash for the rims and tires, and charge that schit. |

tires are almost always stronger for 16.5s because it is more of an industrial rim size used more for hauling heavy loads but you realy dont want to run 16.5s witout beadlocks because there is no saftey bead on those
