You want to put truck tires on a heavy camper, that is fine by me but I prefer to have a tire designed for a heavy camper in the first place. I don't need more than an 81 mph speed rating as I won't see that kind of speed dragging a 10K lb fifth wheel down any road.

^^^^x2! An LT may be an option for an ST tire in some weight categories but is definitely not an upgrade. When pulling a 13 1/2' tall, 38' long box pushed by wind and physics, twisting on the tires supporting it, I want a tire made for that stress with thick sidewalls, not the ability to run 106mph which should be totally irrelevant for anyone towing a trailer like that.
