I cant decide. My lift puts me about the same height as a 4x4 with their t-bars lifted. I have a friend who fits a 315-70-17 on his 4x4 with t-bars lifted and it looks great. but at the same time, something tells me to get a 33 inch tire instead. i cant decide, help please. haha

I have 35's with a 3 in body, T bars up a little and no trimming at all. And I love the look. I say go with the bigger tires.

What wheels are you using. If you keep the OEM wheels, it may fit. You could also add Daystar coilspring spacers for another 2 inches of lift.
