    If your stock and wanna stay stock 265/65/17 slightly larger would be 265/70/17.

    As far as a tire go to wheelworks/goodyear/sears/discount tires and ask them what they recommend anything will be fine for your application.

    They are owned by Cooper Tires. My buddy has a set on his cummins and says they are "alright he guesses"

    Also check to make sure on the manufacturers website that the 265s are approved for use on 9" wide rims.

    They're not bad, as KPT said, they're a Cooper brand. Where are you getting the tires? Townfair Tire price matches so you can find the cheapest, down and dirty price you can and they'll match it!

    Depends, if you want a little lift, go with 265/70R17. They're about 1" taller than stock tires so the truck will sit 1/2" taller. Stock size for the 17" rim is 265/65R17.
