It's difficult to respond to your questions without more specific information:
Which model & size tires do you have now?
What do you mean by "some pretty rough roads?
And considering the age of your truck, what are you willing to invest in it?
I'd suggest starting a new thread so the responses can be directed to your specific situation.

What are my options with a DRW 1 ton 99 Dodge?, although I'm not driving in AK I do quite regularly drive on some pretty rough roads with my old 880 Lance. I'm tired of worrying about my tires,(currently stock size Toyo's). I thought about 1" taller for more ground clearance & less RPM's. (I've got 4.10 axles) But then figured it may give me more side wall flex, which I don't need hauling the camper.
I thought about 19.5" whls but don't know if you can get them with a dual setup?.
Seems like I have to air up every month (truck sits alot on concrete with camper on) is it normal for the tires to leak off over a month's time? Maybe 5-10lbs. Just replaced a wheel because it was leaking thru the steel rim, how's that possible?
I assume that stock tires are a load range D w/2py sidewalls? I would like 3 or 4ply side walls, & can one get higher than E rating? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just not knowledgeable about tires that much. I will have to research this better.
