Tire Size Question

Current the truck has 235/80 R17 E.

Thinking about going to 265/70/R17 E.

Wondering if this will work on the stock steel rims. Have looked at a tire calculator, and there doesnt seem to be that much difference.

Just wondering if the extra width will fit on the stock rims????
Also thinking about the dynabeads....what oz should I buy for this size tire????

And for the North Texas group found a place that mounts for 6.50 and balances for an additional 6.50 per tire...(The first place I called wanted 35 dollars per tire.) So I guess I got a good deal....
