    Check this place out. They're in upstate NY but you can at least run a search and see what's available in your size. I'm assuming you got the tire size from the door jamb right? If you want your truck to remain stock, you should stick with the size listed on your door frame. Obviously others will fit but they'll be slightly different either a little wider, taller, etc.

    I got these because of the reviews and the price. 265/75 16. Good all weather traction, feels like a street tire to me. Can't complain!

    Put a set on a few hundred miles ago and am very pleased so far. Have done very well so far in the rain and dry pavement. Snow is up next.

    I went up just a little from the stock 215/75/15 to a 225/75/15. MPG hit has minimal.

    Really enjoy the overall "look" of the tire and what the bigger size has done. Like the tread, a nice aggressive look without going overboard. The 225/75 fits much better inside the wheel wells, they look they belong there instead of rolling records on a very nice body style truck.

    I got some pics in my build thread, follow the sig.

    Will increasing my tire size technically raise my truck/ride height?

    I have 265/75/16 BFG A/Ts, I lost maybe 1 or 2 MPG after getting them, but the traction gains where more than worth it. I can still easily pull 19MPG with mostly city driving in traffic.
