I currently tow with an F 250. Last winter I had one of the rear tires tread separate at 70% remaining. So I got this thought of trashing the kid's inheritance some more and swapping out in 17 and...

You can easily upgrade the tire load capacity and stay with 17" rims. My tires are 285/70R17 and are rated for 3750 lbs.
Also the rear axle on the F250 and F350 SRW are the same so the rear axle capacity is the same even though the sticker shows the F250 is less.
Haven't seen any with higher ratings so curious
What Brand?
Are you running them front and rear?
IF on fronts......any turning radius issues?
I'm running the Nitto Terra Grappler 285/70R17, they are an all terrain tire, have great traction and ride very nice on the road. Nitto also has this same tire in a street tread, I think it's called Durra Grappler. There are several other brands that have this same size/capacity tire.
I run them front and rear (it's a 4x4) and they fit great with my stock suspension.
