As far as my original question goes..... With the knowledge that I WILL be buying new within the next year and sparing no expense,which option would prove most beneficial now?
IMO--You should get adaptors and and find some cheap 265's with wheels off a fullsize. If i was closer I could give you my spare set of 285 destination mt on 17 inch silverardo wheels for 150 or less. That is what they are on Craigslist for.
If you do something like that...you get the 1/2 ton pattern for more option in the future, you wont have a spacer expense and finding some stock 1/2 tom takeoffs is usually easy.
then you are ready, when you want new, to pick from a larger variety of wheels and tires.
If you dont want to switch patterns now...get what fits cheap and hold off on spacers until you decide which pattern you want with your new tires. Do you want 6x5 or 6x5.5? That is the key issue I see right now.
