For ballpark planning purposes: gross weight for your rig as given at this link is 15,500 lbs.
Dunno why folks are telling you to upsize wheels and all- if you're concerned that the 16's are on the ragged edge of not-enough-capacity you might consider just moving up in load range, from "E" to "F".
A friend of mine with a similar fiver did just that- he thought the tires that came on the rig were too near their max load and replaced them with LR-F tires like the ones at this link
