wheel advice

I own a 2004 F-250 and I'm looking at buying a set of Mickey Thompson wheels and some new all-terrain tires. I was thinking 16x8's since the truck is factory height, but I have no clue as to what size tires would look good or are most appropriate for my truck. Any advice would be very much appreciated!

I have 285s on my 02 X and they fill the wheelwells nicely, could possibly go a bit bigger, but my 285s don't rub, or touch anywhere. Also, make sure you are getting a proper load range for what you plan on hauling/towing.
