Tire sidewalls
I have a 2010 jku. Looking for tires. I keep reading about weak sidewalls and swaying because of soft side walls. How do you tell sidewall strength? I don't want the sway. I had a titan and got new tires did not even think about sidewalls. It swayed with the new tires.
I am not going to do heavy or extream off roading. Some trials Little mud, no pits. Just don't want sway.
Rating d or e?
Thanks

E rated here as well.
28 pay psi in the rear 30 in the front.
Works great, I take em down to 15 for trails and it does everything I need them to. Very solid on streets and highway.
Even hit a curb going 30 to avoid a wreck last week, no issue

Also the simple change from a P-metric CAR tire to a LT-metric TRUCK tire can make tons of difference, even if it's load range C.
Always amazed that only the Rubicon comes with LT rated tires. To be fair to Jeep though everyone does that now except on the 3/4 ton and up trucks.
