About the LT215/85R16 size
Dually (DRW) size, load range E, 2,680 lb per tire. Highway and commercial tread only; six tires per truck. Classic side: also the 7.50-16 equivalent, which is the original split-rim size on a 1953-1966 F-100 and on an FJ40 with 16 in wheels. Tall and narrow is period-correct here, and the load range C and D versions carry more than the original bias tires did.
The numbers mean: 215 mm section width, sidewall height 85 % of that width, and a 16-inch rim. Overall diameter works out to about 30.4 inches. Any replacement has to match all three, and the load index and speed rating on your door sticker must be met or exceeded. Our guide on reading a tire size walks through it.

Frequently asked questions
How much do LT215/85R16 tires cost?
Expect $100–$124 per tire for a budget brand, $124–$170 for a mid-range tire like the Cooper Discoverer AT3 LT, and $170–$261 for a premium tire like the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3. A set of four therefore starts at about $400. Add roughly $15 to $45 per tire for mounting and balancing.
What vehicles use LT215/85R16 tires?
LT215/85R16 is original equipment on Ford F-350 DRW (1999-2004), Chevrolet Silverado 3500 DRW (2001-2010), Dodge Ram 3500 DRW (1994-2002), Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 DRW (2019-2024), Ford F-100 (1953-1966, 7.50-16 equivalent) and Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40 (1960-1984, 7.50-16 equivalent), among others. Always confirm with the sticker inside your driver's door, because trim levels and wheel packages can change the size.
What is the best LT215/85R16 tire?
For most drivers our mid-range pick, the Cooper Discoverer AT3 LT, is the sweet spot of price and tread life. If you keep the vehicle a long time or drive in heavy rain and snow, the BFGoodrich All-Terrain T/A KO3 is worth the extra. On a tight budget the Ironman All Country A/T is a sound choice.
Can I replace just one or two LT215/85R16 tires?
On a front- or rear-wheel-drive car, yes: replace in pairs on the same axle and put the newer pair on the rear. On all-wheel-drive vehicles most makers want all four replaced together, or a new tire shaved to match, because a difference in circumference strains the drivetrain.
