Tire size

Well I need four new tires for the back of my truck . I currently have 235-85-16 on it now and wonder if I can go larger and wider in the back.

Since no one seems to be replying, I was wondering if you went onto a web search at one of the "Tire Companies" that may allow you to search for different tire sizes??

Too bad no one is answering this question...I'd like to know too.

oops I didn't see this. I am running 37x12.5x17 bfg km2 on stock rims. I have custom made hubcentric spacers to keep the rear tires from rubbing on each other when I am hauling a load.

your truck looks evil!! i want to run 35s on my obs but i tow a 18000 pound 5th wheel pretty frequently... im worried about load range e tires large enough, and with a wide tire on a narrow rim isnt there a lot of center tire wear? i'd like to find a 35x10.50r16 but i've only found a tsl swamper in that size and id like to stay in an all terrain tire. i just worry about towing that much weight with tires that wide on narrow rims? how do yours do? any abnormal wear?
