For a play truck = probably not the best thing to do.

But, for a heavy towing/hauling truck = many advantages.

19.5s are readily available in LR-F, G, and H .

235-85-16s on stock DRW rims will touch each other when loaded = too wide for DRW use.

215-85-16s do not touch, but are way too short.

7.50-16s, which are identicle in height to a 235-85-16, are hard to find in LR-E and not easy to find period, but they do not touch.

8R-19.5s are taller by two inches than a 235-85-16, but are much narrower, yielding miles of space between the rear tires.

19.5s, being "truck" tires, will last almost forever.

I don't know why, but everyone I talk to that has made the switch, has picked up a couple MPGs.

I don't know what category my truck is. Definitely not a "play truck," although admittedly I do "play" with it. It is a daily driver that occasionally sees towing/hauling duties. I just want the best tires I can get I don't have to worry about heavy loads and will last a long time.
