Going by what Tire Rack list for OE tires for your 2006 1500 Mega Cab 2 or 4 wheel drive is a 265/70-17 load range E tire, I would say someone cheep out on new tires before you got the truck. JMO

Look at your VIN sticker, it will list the stock tire size that is the MINIMUM to get the rated GVWR, anything smaller would de-rate the GVWR.
Note that the front GAWR (5200 lbs.) added to the rear GAWR (6084 lbs.) does NOT add up (11,284 lbs.) to the rated truck GVWR (8800 lbs)!
