Now i see why there are so many suspension and tire threads!!!

i am getting delivery of my 18 OR Taco tomorrow,
Already purchased a leveling kit (suspension upgrade coming soon just want the nose up)
And have been obsessing over tires-
Was looking at Pirelli Scorpion Muds, (235/85/16 C wall) which look like old BFGs weigh in at around 43 lbs
Now debating On DuraTrac 265/75/16 C at 45lbs

The weight is what’s drawing me to them, and everything ive read seems that the 6ply will be fine.
I am a big fan of traction, it doesn’t rain much in AZ- but when it does it’s all at once so having MTs and no sipping has me steering away from the muds.

Any one in the same boat- also looking at toy tech boss Or eibach suspension lift at 2” with 700lb springs - (1-2k budget)
any thoughts????
