Why don't you go with a 33x10.5 15 BFG AT. Its the same size that you are looking for.

I believe that Kelly or Cooper make that size.

I've had my eye on these for awhile for the T100 - Interco Trxus MT

Are you certain you are looking for a 255/85/15? and not a 16 inch tire? BFG's All Terrain is also available in a 255/85/16 and Goodyear offers the Wrangler AT in that size. Cooper makes the Discoverer ST in a 255/85/16 as does Dunlop for their Mud Rover.

Not a big selection out there for that size, but they are out there -

I can vouch for the Cooper S/T's. I have them on my Truck. Mine are 265/75/16 though. I was thinking about moving up to the 255/85/16's when they wear out.

Great tire, more agressive than the BFG A/T, but not quite as agressive as a true mud terrain. They are pretty loud on the highway however.
