We are near doing a very long trip, and the original Michelins of our 2015 Vegas 24.1 (E 350) are beginning to show some cracking. I would love to get a higher weight limit tire - and Michelin seems to have a new tire - the Agilis Cross Climate. It's a Commercial vs LT, with a 3200 lb max load. Unfortunately, I don't know what the difference between these two is, but I really like the heavier load rating.
I would love to be enlightened.

This particular size is common because it’s offered in the ProMaster van as an option. The standard tire is the LT and the optional one is 225/75R16C.
Ford also uses C (commercial) tires on Transit vans but in different 16-inch-wheel sizes. The larger on SRW Transits are 235/65R16C, which have similar load capacity but are a little smaller in diameter so can’t be mixed.
