Default Replacement LT tires for Scorpion P275/55r-20 tires

I have been searching for good replacement tires for my Scorpion P275/55r-20 tires and have not had much luck. I have a 2011 F150 Lariat SCrew Ecoboost with max tow package towing a Rockwood Windjammer 3008W. The truck pulls fantastic but I can feel that little sway in the soft sidewalls that I can't accept. Does anyone have a good suggestion for a good LT tire replacement? Maybe something in a C range.
Thanks

Thanks for the feedback. I was hoping someone had a particular tire they used and liked. I would hate to buy an untested tire for so much money and not be satisfied. The front end kitchen puts a load on the tongue weight (still legal) so I need some good tires with sound sidewalls.

Michelin LTX is a good choice for daily driving and towing.

Lower profile tires will have shallow sidewalls and would definitely any sway or harmonicing cause by the tires.
