Default Need help with tire selection

I'm looking to get new tires before the snow starts flying. I have a '95 4x2, just had new shocks and springs put on so it seems like it's up higher by a foot

Anyway..any suggestions on what the best to get would be? I currently have on there P235/75R15. I could swear the tires previous to these were bigger or looked bigger.

Looking for something that'll be halfway decent in snow...little off-road...but also great for the road. And that will LAST. Also any recommendations on where to get them and have them put on, etc. Are those life-time rotation/balancing deals worth the money etc etc.

Thanks

Thanks. I did some digging and it does get great reviews(for the most part). These might be the ones I get...now to have the white/letters inside or out?

I've always liked blackwall tires, even on cars. To me, it shows the wheels off more.

Gets down to personal preference. To me, letters outside make the vehicle look like a MatchBox toy. But that's just my ol'fart opinion.

Are these tires being discontinued?

A friend of mine was calling around for the best prices, and he's been told by quite a few that they can't get the tires anymore and/or they only have so many left and/or they're being discontinued.

Can anyone shed some light on this? Seems strange since so many recommend them on these types of sites.

Thanks
