Yes. Same hayseed as bimmerfest. Does the yukon have something like the bmw connected drive where I can do online searches? She never gets motion sickness but the passenger seat in the X5 does it to her. Everyone else is fine.

Here is my take..
Set-Up is Max Trailering Package, 275/55/20 Continentals, Auto-ride



I went thru the ride issue where I felt a vibration when going above 65 and in some instances.. suspension felt out of whack even at low speeds if hit even the slightest imperfection in the road.. this was AFTER.. I went to the dealer for an Oil Change and Tire Rotation where they also added air to my tires.. 35psi.. which is the recommended. I then commenced in dropping them back to where I was before I took it in.. 33PSI all around and the vehicle rides as smooth as a Caddy now. No vibration, not roughness.

so basically, you notice a big difference in ride when tires are 35+psi vs 33psi or less?

Yep. Even my '14 Stingray simply rides better when it is around 33psi. The '14 Impala? Same thing. The '16 CTS-V? Yup.. I think the inflation numbers are because of fuel economy testing or something.. but I have no issue burning an extra gallon of gas if the ride is smoothed out like it tends to be at 32- 33psi.

If you're not concerned about off road performance, you can't go wrong with Michielin LTX or Michelin premier LTX. I went with the premier making sure all RF balanced under 15lbs and buffeting was 99% fixed. I am sure many tires will be fine but make sure they RF them and they are under 15lbs. Shouldn't have to but these trucks are ultra sensitive.
