I'm not sure actual weights would change my tire choice. I want the most durable tire I can get. For that tire size (225/75R16), load range E 10-ply tires seem to be the best you can get. Load range E is rated for 2680 lbs.

Yes, you can get “commercial” tires that size with over 3,000 pound load rating when used as singles. I don’t recall dual-tire rating. Do a Google search for 225/75R16C, where the C stands for commercial. Do not use the LT (light truck) prefix which is what you have now.
There are various manufacturers making this size tire. Some websites list them incorrectly, so I’d confirm rated load capacity on tire sidewall.
