Frank- if you are looking for a higher capacity weight carrying 17" tire, consider the Nitto brand. It might require stepping up to a 285/17 with a Load index of 126 for E rating pressure (make sure your rim will accept this width.) Also make sure your rims can handle that weight rating.
I did this for my Dodge to fit my application. There are not many option for the 17" rim size, but with diligent research, a good tire-to-rim-rating-to LI is possible depending on how heavy a load you are carrying.
I researched the sheet out of the options for my truck/camper combo and was able to run the numbers to make it work for me.
