Those are the only ones I've seen also. if you aren't towing heavy...and can live with a D rated tire, there are a lot more choices.
If I needed an E rating...I'd go with the Toyo M/T's. But if I was towing real heavy, I would not run 315's. JMO.

ahhh, ive noticed those are my only option. i the truck has a 2' leveling kit, and 1'' body lift, (i want to remove it, but then need to relocate my bumpers)
it has beat up 37'' goodyear wranglers on it, IM NOT putting 37's back on, so i thought i should atleast put 35'' tires. I can get 305 BFG MT, but thought that might look small? i didnt want to spend that much on the toyos.

The Toyo MT 35x12.50x17 is a great tire. Not sure you can do better. E rated tires imo are required for these trucks. D's make them handle a little squirrely.

i might just have to suck it up then, anyone have any advice on the 305 bfg's with bigger then just a leveling kit?

I do have a Lance truck camper, that weighs around 3000#, thats why i need E tires
