I do not know if any are being made...
You certainly are limiting yourself by not upsizing the rim. The first TT that I put LTs on started out with 14s from the factory. When I went to LTs, that was with 16" rims... Which is the sweet spot for LT tires... Many many choices, as that was the primary pickup size for many years.. May still be.
When I went to 16s, that meant I needed 6 lug drums. They are pretty cheap, and come with new bearings. I did it at bearing repack time. It made the job easier as I did not have to clean the old grease off of the bearings and drums.
I also sold my old stuff on Craigs list. That helped defray the cost of the upgrade.
