Do the 235's you're running now rub in the front? Are your wheels 15X8's all the way around? If you have 8's all the way around you might see if you can get some 7 inch ralleys for the front, and see if your front tires work better. The 7 inch ralleys should have a better offset for the front of your truck. I've seen the 7 inch ralleys here on the board pretty cheap. As far as the back tires I run 275 60 R15 on my 15X8's and they look great, you could try the 285 70 R15's, but your truck will be really rake with the super tall back and short front.

Good luck, Steven
