SlickWillie, thats what I did. When I bought my truck a few months ago I swapped the 16" rims and got 17" rims from the dealer. I then bought new tires and went up a size to 265.
I increased load capacity for the tires from 16" to 17" and then from 245 to 265 tires.
I don't consider it additional load capacity I just think safety first and I know that my tires will carry what I need to load up to and including max. wt.
I never worry about tires when I travel. I just ck the pressure and go.
