Default Tire selection

Have a 1996 f150 with 4" lift . I was wondering if 35"x 14.5" Pittbull tires would look to wide ? Or if I should just go with 35"x12.5" any suggestions let me know

IMO there's no such thing as too wide when it comes to tires on a 4x4.
Have you priced out the pit bulls? There very expensive!

What is limiting your selection is the 15" wheel.
There's tons of tire company's building that size in a 17" wheel size.

There's a fancy rim size offset calculator on the forums..
