10 ply tires
#22
I was going to say that E rated are overkill on an F150 until mentioned about going out in fields and such, makes sense to have a stronger inner core, though I don't beleive it will be more puncture resistant. My Dually had E rated tires, rough ride, my F150 came with LT's, rough ride, swapped them with my older Bridgestones from the 14, smoother ride. I run empty most of the time, so for my use, E rated, even D rated, AKA LT, is overkill, but when I tow, I may swap to the LT's. The Bridgestones handled towing just fine, but they have 54K miles on them. Still plenty of tread life left too.

Factory LT245x75x17 Michelin LTX AT's...running 70psi fronts and 65psi rears. Nice to have 6,540 payload to handle the trailers over 3K pound hitch weight. Truck and trailer are about as level as I can get them. A lot safer then using son in laws F-250 that was way over the payload. Trailer tires are 14ply G rated Sailun 637's 110psi.
