That's what I'm planning when the OEM tires wear out.

this truck looks good

think the 35" grapplers would fit? i think if the muds rub, the grapplers would rub way worse with those huge side lugs....

I'm getting 275/70R18 Cooper Discoverer ATR's installed today. This is a 33" tire that has a semi-aggressive tread pattern. If you want more aggressive you could go with a Discoverer ST in the same size or a BFGoodrich AT in 285/65R18. I also like the looks of the brand new GoodYear Wrangler DuraTrac, but haven't heard much about them since they just came out a few weeks ago. All of these tires will fit a stock rim and will not rub if you have any kind of leveling kit installed. 33's may fit fine with stock suspension too, but I'm not positive on that.
Oh yeah, I ended up going with the ATR's because they were a few hundred dollars cheaper than everything else and I do most of my driving on the streets. Also, I used to buy the Discoverer AT's and never had any problems with them.
I ran across this site while researching tires and they seem to have a large selection at great prices. www.tires-easy.com
Edit: I didn't realize this thread was so old until just a second ago. I'm sure the guy could have used this information about 3 years ago, ha.
