the next size up in a LT tire is gonna be a 32" tall tire and that will require turning the torsion bars up! size is LT285-70R17

if you wanted to go with a 18 inch wheel you could probably fit 285/60/18's on there. if im not mistaken they're only a 31.25 inch tire. but keep in mind that size tire will be lower profile and kinda look funky. Im goin with that size bfg g-force when I lower my truck .

the LT275-70R17 has very few selections in a LR E tire!
the size to go with if you want wider but the same height in the 18 wheel go with a LT275-65R18!in the 17" your stuck with either the 265's or the 285's!
