What mud tire/ cheap places to buy
I am lifting my truck and and looking for a 34/35 in tire on 16in wheels. Would i be able to use my stock wheels 16x7 or would i need 2 get new ones? Also, where is a good palace to buy tires for cheap?
you can use the stock wheel if you are doing a a body lift, if you are going with a suspension lift then you will have to get new wheels.
However id recommend you change the wheels anyway.

Not Nitto just Mud Graps, Terra Graps are a darn good tire.
They wear fast... and one they start the middle wears faster and looks bald (no matter what PSI you run them at)
You only get 30k-ish ok of a set.
They really arent that great offroad
IMPOSSIBLE to keep balanced
Loud (the only thing that really doesnt bother me)
In some cases they will start to Chunk apart (if offroaded regularly)
My Buddy bought some for his F350 because he thought they looked "cool" after 15k they didnt look "cool" anymore. When he first got them we were on our way to a little mud hole out in Seffner florida and he threw a wheel weight (geuss where it landed... my windshield after a few bounces)
Id run a set of BIAS ply Super Swampers before touching a set of Nitto Mud Grapplers.
Ive had friends and family loose money buying these tires because they look "cool" and they think they will last... they just dont.
Im done ranting!

Prepare to spend some $$ on the tires, and buy the best you can afford in the size you need.
With a body lift and cranked torsion bars, you SHOULD be able to clear 35x12.50/16s on 8" rims no problem.
I would go with the BFG MT KM/2, or Maxxis Bighorn / Summit Mud Dawg. The BFG is a great tire, and from what I am seeing in the 4x4 club, the Bighorn / Mud Dawg (same tire, different branding) peform up to par with the now replace Mud Terrain KM.
Sure the Maxxis / Summit tire isn't some big shot name everyone will recognize off hand. But would you rather show off, or have tires that work like they are supposed to?
And yeah I know that is a trick question. We all want to show off, at least a little bit...

i found the Maxxis Bighorn / Summit Mud Dawg in 35/12.5 for $178 that about the right price? Also i couldnt find any reviews on them does any one have them? Will they preform ok on the road as well and how long is their tread life?
