Their Aussie website says a 111 load rating,XL(extra load) for that size.

That's how I understand it.
Only one 255/55/19.
Tyresales selling same tyre at 2 different prices.

It's not just Tyresales that advertise a 4 ply version though, which is why it got me wondering about it.
There is Tyresales (AU and NZ), Adens Tyres(NZ) and Amazon had them, but now don't have RF10s in 255/55R19

I have just noticed now, that they have what seem light duty RF10s in other sizes that are only 4 ply. This makes me think that the 4 ply is in reference to the normal 6 ply construction, not a beefed up sidewall. I did also notice that at least some LT rated RF10s are indeed a 10 ply construction.

wow. I thought all RF-10s had 10 ply construction.
It seems the big tyres (rim size) that you guys need cost considerably more than the smaller rim sized ones.
the LT235/85/R16s RF10s I have on my Perentie were only $235 ea fitted and balanced.

All the 19inch tyres are rated at 111 are they not? If so, which one has the strongest side wall or are they all the same? Maybe needs another thread of its own but I think alot are probably over the subject. Still, opinions are always welcome.
Cheers

My understanding from reading thousands of lines of threads is that probably the strongest sidewalls (19") are to be found on the GY Duratracs but they are pricey and not always easy to find. I get the impression they are the best choice for off-roading in the general toughness catagory. The best compromise option for those who do want to go off-road is Hankooks. They are reasonably priced and reasonably available and have a good rep on this site (for offroad).


One observed con of the Hankooks is that they are bulgier which is a perceived risk on shale and rocks and some keep the pressures up over the usual recommendation for these conditions.


Mate has got some General Grabbers which he seems happy with but has not challenged them off road yet. You don't hear as much about them here for or against. (again I'm talking 19's. I always sigh when comments about 18s and 17s seep in to a 19 thread)
