Anybody run E load tires on their Expedition? As heavy as an Expy is I feel better with E loads. Maybe not necessary though.

The factory equipped them with Continental's and I'm using Michelin mud and snow tires and haven't had any problems, I don't think E loads are necessary since those are like B and C loads. But do what you need to feel safer.

I have E load BFG ATs on mine. They ride a little harder, but I think its worth it. Since they are a harder tire, they tend to wear better, and are much better off road. Most of the areas I drive in the mountains have lots of rocks, so I like the 10 ply tires. Just my opinion.

my spare is an e-load just like 99expys. that was a great tire! thats why its my spare. haha long story! but you can lower the psi down more with an E when offroading. and high psi when towing. i would spend the extra $$ on an E load. just for the added plys.

I have load rating D tires and I really like them. I am running them at 36 psi and they feel so much better than the POS flintstones that were on there with 42 psi. If I towed alot I would have thought about E's but this is just my beater.
