New tires

I have had 4 sets of BFG A/T's and 2 sets of BFG M/T's, never had problems with any of them. I got about 35-40,000 miles out of my last set of mud terrains on my previous duramax. For your truck you could go as big as a 265/75R16 without having to mess with anything and keep from destroying your gas mileage. The next size down would be a 245/75R16 which is roughly the same height tires you have now but slightly wider. Both the mickey's and the BFG's come in E load ranges in both 265's and 245's. I think the mickey's would be just as good as the BFG's. Your choice!
