That's a tough call. I think they look good but bigger would look better, if that makes any sense. Will your tire shop help you out any?
You should try and post them on Craigslist before you order new ones and see what kind of bites you get.

I am going to try and contact the shop that put my level kit on and see if they will swap my tires but the owner corey is kind of a dick so I'm not going to bank on him agreeing to do that.
My next option would be craigslist..

I personally like them. Here's my honest opinion:
Compared to Morgan's truck, yes, you need bigger tires. However, Morgan's truck has more of a rough tough offroad look to it, which I do like.
Compared to that, your truck has (and I mean this VERY lightly and non-offensively) more of a street lifted truck. It's (you're going to hate me) prettier. I really like the look of your truck and I think the ends do not justify the means.

No, I agree dave. I was totally going for the offroad/street truck.. and at some views I love how the truck looks.. But other times I look at it and the tires just don't look right...
I'm just looking into it way to hard... Almost like i'm trying to find a reason to bitch about something... I have had so many people come up to me and tell me my truck is perfect that they would not change a thing... But I just don't see it lol

Even if I do go with a 295/60..... I would probably rub the bottom rocker...
Think I would?

Mine comes very close in that exact spot. I think it does rub a tiny bit, I saw some scuff marks on the plastic earlier, but only on the driver side. And I agree with Dave, you truck has more of an elegant look to it with the painted flares and grille. Like I said before, your current tires look great as is. Unless you can get them swapped out for cheap, I'd keep them.

Also, keep in mind the 295/60 would be about 1 to 1.5" narrower than what you have now.

Keep them Kyle. Once you add the light bar it'll look even better.
