As far as sizes......you can get such a wide variety that by doing just a little homework you can play with a multitude of width/height combinations and not affect your speedometer/odometer calibration.
As a general rule though, 2 widths up and one sidewall height up in combination will only minimally affect the settings and you really won't notice it. More than that and it make a difference.
For example: Your truck is spec'd for 225/60 x 15 tires. You could go with 245/75's with no real problem. As well 255/60's would also be ok.
Speed shops can get you the tire height corrected drive gear for your speedometer in MOST cases.
A & A auto parts can get you damn near anything you want being that they are owned by 3 time Top Fuel champion Joe Amato. Now the nearest stores to you are in Allentown and Bethlehem but if you really want something it could be worth the phone call and later drive to the store. Hell if you're feeling spiffy you could do a combo trip and hop on over another 25 - 30 miles and hit Cabela's while you're at it!
