Consider upgrading your tires. You are going to spend thousands on a TC, and to choke up on the cost of upgrading your tires makes no sense to me. Simply too much money involved to compromise your choice of TCs due to tires.

I agree. Running your current tires at max load is not what I'd call safe. Hit anything; potholes, a chunk of wood, a rocky road to get to a campground, and you will be maxing out the tires. The max load is for perfect road conditions. The first few smacks won't blow the tire, but they add up and eventually, a blow out on the freeway, as what happened to Buzzcut.
I went to 19.5's and I'm so glad I've got lots of room to go before I risk damaging a tire hitting something I couldn't avoid, or going down a rough road to get to a nicer camp spot.
