My personal favorite wheel. Even though I have Mickey Thompson Classic II's myself. You should have no issue with it.

You could stay in the "family" and get a set of Cepek Fun Country II's. I have them and love them!
I have not had a 2nd gen for six years now, and it was lifted, but if I remember correctly, you should be able to fit up to their 265/75/16 without any issues...

They may actually fit better. The backspace may be different. I put on 16x8 wheels and they sit out more and you can run a larger tire.
