Looking for a bigger tire on my stock 18's

I need new tires before this winter and I want some bigger ones, atleast taller. I'm looking for something around a 33 for my stock 18's on my 04 screw. I don't do any offroading but I do live in MI and need a good all terrain tire that won't break the bank.

Any sugg??????????

I'd go with some 285/65-18 (33x11.50) BFG AT KO's or Nitto Terra Grapplers.

i don't want to steal your post, but i am also looking for some tires for my fx4 18s before winter. dont want to run the 20s in the winter. I dont have to run any kind of lift for a 285 65 18 BFG AT do I? I also saw some Hankook tires this size on ebay. anyone have any experience with this brand?

No, you don't need a lift to fit 285's.
Some of the Hankook's are getting good reviews, at least their MT is.

anyone have a pic of these tires on their truck. I stopped by 2 local tire shops and they both told me that the stock tire is pretty much as big as you can go on the 18's unless you go up to something in the 37 range. Is there somewhere online I can buy the tires?

I'd try The Tire Rack or Discount tire.
