Help a Tire Noob

I have a 2003 F350 with the 2 1/2" front end leveling done.

Currently I'm running Dick Cepek Mud Country 35X12.50R20LT's with 20" wheels. They do rub just slightly on tight turns.

There is a different measurement to tires that I don't understand the conversion to.

Something like 275/35R20.... what would be the proper size in that measurement similar to what I currently have?

Sat down with a calculator real quick, and it appears that the metric equivalent of a 35x12.50/20 tire would be a 315/60R20.

I'm not really familiar with tire sizes over 16", so that particular size may or may not exist.
