I will be switching to 19.5's in a few months when the snow lets up. The tire life is much greater if you can put up with a rougher ride. Prices on tires are a bit higher...paid almost 300 apiece for new fronts but rear retreads were only 100 each so it all equalled out( keep in mind these are 265/70-19.5's which are equal to 36" tires which cost over 250 each)...as far as direct bolt on wheels verse adapters and used wheels...It cost me just over 1400 for 6 new aluminum dirrect bolt on rims, the cheapest adapters I could find were 900...then you have to buy the rims. It looks like your running a single rear truck, if you tow alot these would help greatly with the sway associated with your present sidewall flex. Hope any of this might help...if you have any more question feel free to send me a PM. Good luck! Welcome aboard!
