Buy a set of OE takeoffs 18" or 20" tires and wheels and get way more capacity and some nicer wheels for the same price or less then a quality set of 17" tires.
Not that your 17s are totally inadequate, but guaranteed your at or above the tire rating and you basically can't buy a 17" tire rated more than 3195lbs now. Why? Idk, weird industry thing that suddenly capped 17" LT tire ratings.
If you do get 17s I'd look for some new old stock rated higher. Or just dump the little steelie wheels for a heavier setup.
