Anytime a larger/stiffer tire is used in place of the OE tires, suspension issues are more apt to happen. That's why most will recommend staying with the original designated size and add a load range with the replacements if available.

Their description is " Constructed with double steel belts and plies for a long life . Nylon tread firming belt overlays. Is this something different then a steel cased tire ?? The tire in question is the Westlake ST 235/85/16 G rated 4400 lbs @ 110 psi.
Thats the stock tire on a 2020 Big Horn 3925 MLP, 7K axles with conventional leaf spring suspension .
