On my 2wd diesel suburbans I used to always run car tires on the front of the truck and properly load rated tires on the rear (or sometimes car tires all the way around)

The issue you will experience is even if the load rating appears to be appropriate you will have more tires fail, likewise though you get better gas mileage and probably spend less overall on tires.

It helps a GREAT deal if your truck uses 15" tires as your LRR choices are much better.

Good Luck
