Default tires

That's the size i'm running with a 2" level kit.

I think it works and looks great.

I think they would look a little thin. Ive got 295/65r18 duratracs on mine with a 2.5 inch level from rough country

i've got 275/70/18's. i HATED them at first because i loved the look of a fat tire so i thought they were too thin. but they've definitely grown on me. i think they look great. i do sometimes wish they were a little wider, but i get alot of complements on them and i like them now, so i don't mind.

here's a couple more pics to give you good idea of the 275's. but if you're a bigger fan of wide tires then by all means, go for a wider tire. if you don't it'll bother you. trust me it did that to me for a while.

the 285/65/18 bfgs are like a tad shorter than the 275 but a half inch wider.i think as far as tire height its almost a 33" tire but the width you would notice it is wider.i want to make the right choice ,dont want to regret it and look at it for three years.

this may sound stupid but is there a 275 width tire that looks wider than other 275s?some of them have tread on the sidewalls and in some pics they look wider to me.

I'm getting a 2.5" level installed today with 275/65/20 Duratracs. I'll let you know how it turns out.
