Default Dually tire sizes.

What are you guys running on the first gen's?

I have 235 85/16's on mine and they look tiny! what would be a good step up in tire height? they clear the rear just fine, i had some 245 75/16's on it and they cleared fine also but were way to small. have 4 steel rims and 2 alum(alcoa's i think) kinda mismatch but oh well.

anyways I need tires before winter hits and I would like to find something a little taller to help with freeway rpm's since that's mainly what I drive, looking for experiences and suggestions.
