if your not going to regear soon i would go with a 305 bc gas mileage will suck ,especially with a 4.6. i have an expedition with a 5.4 and a 3.55ls and i have pics in my gallery of mine with 305s and then my 35s which i have now. and i get 13 mpg on a good day

like they said before the nitto mud grappler is a good tire and they last a while. but the only downside is there a little on the expensive side and sound like a freakin airplane which can get old if you do a lot of highway driving. but i had the 305/70/17 maxxis bighorns before and i got the set for a little under a grand and they rode really good and wasnt to loud and they pulled pretty good in the mud, if you like those that could be a good route to take,

Your truck wont be able to pull/tow or move out of its own way with 35s, a 4.6, and 3:55 gearing. I am just saying. I was running a 5.5" lift on 33s with a 4.6 and 355s and my truck wouldnt stay in overdrive for anything. Even driving up hills or into the wind felt like a pain. 4:56s and woke it up though.. made it perfect.

If you really want people to think you're a BAMF, you'll need a few more things besides bigger tires.

Don't forget the truck nuts to let every one what a big pair you have.


and while you're at it, get your woman a set of nuts for her phone so she'll always know her place.


Be sure to add some chrome so everyone knows you're blinging, like this guy:


Don't forget the mandatory rear window sticker... No Fear sounds like a good one:


And just in case people still can't figure it out, tell them with a cool sticker like this one:


Once you've got the truck all set up, be sure to dress appropriately so everyone knows you're a BAMF even when you aren't driving.


Can't wait to see it when it's done!

Heck of a deal since parts alone run that much for a 4x4.
