I'd be happy to make a replacement recommendation for your 245/75R16 tires!
I recommend going with the Kenda Karrier ST235/80R16 # AM10248 if you're just looking for the tire.
If you need a tire and wheel combo then I recommend the Taskmaster Provider # TA39VR which has the 6 lug wheel, or the Taskmaster Provider # TA99VR which has an 8 lug wheel. These tires will have the same basic dimensions as your current tire size and they have a Load Range E weight rating which is 3,520 lbs at 80 psi.
I have attached review videos of each tire set for you to check out.
