Default Which tires guys?

What are good all terrain tires for my 95 4x4? It will have a 4 inch lift on it soon, so should I go 33's or 35's on what inch rims?

Also, anyone with a 4 inch lift can you take a measurement on how far the truck sits from the ground? Give me your opinions!! Thanks

I just put 33x12.5 Goodyear Duratracs on and they are great so far. They fall just between an all terrain and a mud terrain and have pretty rave reviews online. I've only had them for a week so I can't comment on longevity but I can say they are great off road and not too loud on the highway. They are a bit louder than the BFG All terrains I used to have but not nearly as loud as the BFG mud terrains I used to have. I can't comment on rain traction yet but so far I am very pleased with the purchase.

i have cooper discovery's ST on my 150 (stock size) and my dodge (33s), i love the tires to death, very little road whine and great traction offroad. im running general grabber AT2s in 35" on the 250 and they are doing great so far, but i only have around 5k miles on them. 300 offroad miles.

awesome! thanks for the responses guys!

So what inch rims do you think look good on 35's or 33's? I think that the 15 inch rims will look ballooned out.

16 for 33s and 17-18 for 35s. i think the 16s on the 250 look small with 35s. my dodge has 16" rims and the 33s and looks about right IMO.

33s and 16 rim

and only picture i got of 35s and 16s on this comp.
