Replacing Tires

Tired of all the blowouts we have had on the 5er. Originals ST235/80/r16 E. I see lots of controversy on the ST tires. What is the most people are using to replace tires with ? I am looking at Bridgestone Duravis R250's LT235/85/r16 E. Would these interchange with what I now have on my 5er? Avalanche 330RE 11,710 pounds. I am getting really confused and with all the knowledge on this forum figured someone would be able to help me out....Thanks :?

    With that weight, any Load Range E Light Truck tire will do. I run B. F. Goodrich Commercial TA (which have a good trailer tread pattern) in size LT 245/75R16 that is 1/2 inch wider and the same diameter as the original STs.

    I got mine at Tire KIngdom at Semoran/Lake Margaret for about $700 for the four; mounted, balanced, and on the trailer.
