Default Wanting to size up on tires

Right now i'm sitting on 275/65/18 BFG ATs. I love the tire and but i'd like to size up to a 33 or possibly 34. Anyone have suggestions?

Default

275/70R18 @ 33.2" tall
or
275/65R20 @ 34.1" tall

Those seem to be the most popular options.

The 34" tall tire will be a tight fit without a little lift.

285/65/18 or 285/70/18 would be a nice fit on your stock wheels.

Uncommon sizes like that cost unreasonably more money per tire unfortunately. You are looking at $30-$50/tire extra for a 285/65R18 over a 275/70R18. And the 285/70R18 leaves you with a $400 BFG KM2 but I'm a sucker for that tire it's worth it!
