GM owes you a set of tires, if the OEMs were below RAWR. :) I'm not familiar with 245 Es from 02, but most of the ones I see are rated 3195, which covers the 6,000 plus/minus RAWR of many 2500s.
Likely too late to collect on those tires, as GM is scaling back/cost cutting as we type.

'Thout looking, the OEM 245 tires were just under the RAWR, maybe 100-200 lbs. They're rated at 3,086 lbs each. The 265s, which were on the truck when I got it in '04 with < 10k miles, are rated at 3,417 lbs each, so a gain of 662 lbs' tire capacity, which puts me well over the RAWR sticker.
