I ordered a set of wheels and tires today. After spending some time talking through the options with Rickson, I settled on the load range F tires and full wheel simulators. The F's will give the rear axel 14,000 LBS of load capacity on the tires and will hopefully stop the inside passenger rear from being overloaded. The F's will take almost 1,000 LBS more load per tire that the D's, though I do realize that the rear axel itself is only good for about 9500lbs and that tires will not increase that at all.
I should have them in a couple weeks, so I'll post an update after my next trip.
Oh, I am planning on keeping one of the existing load range D wheels and tires as a spare. I figure I would put one of the fronts on the rear and the different sized spare on the front. The front is a much lighter load and I think the D's handle it just fine.
