LR-E tires simply for higher pressures is not the way to go. Stick with the load range specified by the manufacturer. A better quality tire would be my choice, of the optimum tread design. On the oilfield runs I've made -- down long caliche lease roads [paved with rocks the size of softballs sometimes] -- I don't see either the necessity of 4WD or lug tread tires. There is a compromise in there that is a better choice, IMO. Stock height and stock tire/wheel size. Slow down is the other answer.
