Tire Delima, Which size to run.

I'm looking at two brands of tires. One tire is the Bridgestone Revo A/T in the size of 265/70R17. This is a "E" load rated tire.

The second tire is the Firestone Destination A/T in 285/70R17, load range "D".

The Firestone is a taller tire and I think would look better on my truck, I always thought the orignal size tire, which the Bridgestones are, looked too small for my 2005 F250 PS CrewCab.
The Firestones are about an inch greater diameter.

Anybody with a similar truck have this tire on theirs? Did it adversly effect the mileage?

Appreciate any inputs or thoughts ya'll might have.

Mileage should be a wash, go with the taller tires
