All I see in that size are AT or MT. Destination AT, Silent Armor, Cooper AT/3 = all good choices.
Yeah, very limited tires in that size. Most will be LT AT/MT's. There are a couple off brands as well as a few mild AT's but no all season/streets that come to mind.
You will have a LOT more tire options if you drop to 265's or jump up to 285's.

All our fleet Silverados run 265/70/17's from the factory.
You will have many many choices there. A very large and aggressive looking tire.

If they are going on the truck in your sig, I'd pick an OE-size (same diameter). That would give you the best MPG/power/braking/etc.

I stopped daily driving it since I bought the Saturn. Put 27K on it the first 12 months I owned it, so I have to slow that mileage down. Not really worried about practicality, just looks. Im going to get another 15K out of these, just shopping around/looking for ideas. Don't wanna lose the look, I just want something quieter. These aren't the smoothest ride...

285 would work too...

As everyone is pointing out, your best selection and pricing is going to be in a 265/70. Most F150 owners who got trucks with the 255/70 go to the 265/70 on the first tire change becuase there are so many more choices and the pricing is way better.
I've sold quite a few of them. Have one set to go on tomorrow or Monday, whenever the new rims get in. Our Sheriff just ordered a set for his patrol truck. Thus far, and I've sold these over the last year, not a single complaint and nothing but positive feedback.
