One option with the A/T tires I did was look for some new truck takeoffs. These guys dropping 60k on a new truck often want big tires and custom wheels so there are nice mounted and balanced highway tires all over Craigslist with little use. I got a set, wheels and tires, off a 2015 with 8000 miles on them for $350. They are also taller, 33", than my stock tires, 31.5", which helped drop my cruise rpm a bit. In my case the extra height on the truck doesn't matter as the camper behind it is way more frontal aera than the truck will be.
I still want to do a cedar strip aero bed cover with the possibility of being able to angle it up as a deflector when towing. One I want to learn the technique, two I want to have a dry place to store stuff not towing, three they look freaking sweet if you saw the tread with the Toyota one.
