all are good
i would upgrade to an LT 265/75R16 load range E to get the 3415# load rating for just a few bucks more.
freight and mounting are the same for 245 or 265 .
i have , in fact done that for my duramax and the vortec 7400 that preceeded it.
a couple of bucks has added about 15 % to tire life
and gives reserve capacity to stop blowouts .
