I work for Bridgestone and can get free tires if the vehicle has less than 500 miles. Can anyone tell me the specs of what comes on a limited regular length with hd tow?

Order guide states:
301A - P275/55R20
302A - P285/45R22
303A - P285/45R22
304A - P285/45R22

HD tow and regular vs Max doesn't change the tire size or type that I'm aware of

I just realized maybe you meant load rating and speed as well.

P275/55R20 113H, Toyo Open Country HT-D

P285/45R22 114H, General Grabber HTS 60

P285/45R22 114H, Hankook Dynapro HT RH12

I'm sure there are other tires as well.

HD tow and not max tow right? My '21 FX4 has the max tow that came with 275x65x18 Michelin Primacy's that were P rated. Put some BFG KO2's 275x70x18 LT and 10 ply truck tires. World of difference aired up to 65 psi when towing our 7500 lb travel trailer. Also have the 3.73 gearing and the factory brake controller. Larger radiator and back up assist was factory installed also. If you plan on towing anything above 5 or 6K pounds I would put on some LT 10 ply tires that help reduce rear swaying form the IRS rear suspension.

If you plan on towing, I would highly recommend moving to LT tires. You will be much happier when towing. When not towing, it will be a harsher ride due to less sidewall cushion, but you don't have much sidewall anyway on the 22" tires that come stock.

Thank you guys for the advice. We have a 7100 lb camper a lot and would gladly take a safer ride over extra comfort.

This vehicle was already a compromise between the wife and i as she wanted to keep her telluride and i wanted a f150 to tow a bigger camper

Honestly, In my opinion, money would be better spent on a Hellwig Rear Sway bar. You will gain far more control and you won't sacrifice any ride quality.

It sounded like he was getting these for free so $, isn't an issue I assume. I'm really confused by the free tires only if you have a brand new vehicle thing. I couldn't imagine my employer being hey work for me for great deals and I'll save you a set of tires I'd you drop 75k on a new truck but if you can't keep up with the jones's sorry about ya. Mind boggling perk for sure.

LT is the way to go for towing. In laws have had LT on their 03 and we have identical trucks otherwise and when loaded its much more "stable" I don't have issues with the loads I've moved but theirs has a more reassuring firmness to it during any type of maneuver. I know it's not a 22 but we only differ in the tire type and similar data point.

When not towing I've been running 42 psi in the BFG KO2's I have. A little stiffer than the stockers but they actually handle better and cut down on some of the rear sway. Look a lot better and offer better puncture resistance.

Yes I work for Bridgestone. We get wholesale discounts on tires. If we buy a new car though we can swap the tires out for free for any tire we choose as long as the oem tires have less than 500 miles on them
