Almost got my tire/rim setup!!

Ok well I almost have made a decision on what tire and rim setup im gonna get.. Almost.. I think im gonna go with the Moto metal 951's But i also like the Hulks.. Im gonna go with an 18" rim. Now tires are a different story. I want 35's but I think ive decided against the 6" lift. I have a 2 1/2" AS and am gonna put an AAL in the rear. Now finally to my question. What is the most aggressive looking 33" tire that wont wear too fast on the street? Unless someone knows of a 34" tire that wont rub on aftermarket rims!! Thanks in advance.

A word of caution on the Motos. They have a 4.5" backspacing, so they will stick out slightly. Unless you're planning on running some fender flares, I'd advise against them.

Toyo Open Countries are a nice compromise of agressive looks and street performance. I've heard nothing but good things about them.

Do you think that would look weird with a non lifted truck?

Man I have 20" moto metal 951s on 33" nitto terra grapplers... they are nice and aggressive looking good wear and dont make a sound... I dont think the moto metals stick out too far I think they give the truck a really aggressive look... I would advise getting a wider rim and a larger size, becasue when you go with 18s if you ever want to upgrade to a wider tire they will look small imo....
