Another vote for the 235/85/16 tires. 1" taller than stock, lower rpm at same road speed, more clearance with no modifications needed, fit on stock rim, better traction on ice and snow and less rolling resistance. Unless you go to REALLY wide tires you are not going to make a modern pickup float in sandy or swampy country. You need a light rig and at least 25" balloon type or Agricultural tires to get any flotation.
