Needin tires, QUICK

Alright guys, I got 3.5 inch spoindles and 1.5 inch spacers up front and a 3 inch block in the back on an 01 supercrew. Now i need to know what tires will look good, i can see all my suspension currently due to my sissy-like 275 - 60s. Now, i dont have a **** ton of money right now, and i'd also like some suggestions that arent the most rare tire available. I'm open to 33s 34s and possibly 35s if that would even work.

HERES THE KICKER, keepin my stock 17 x 7.5 inch rims. Don't want mud terrains or highway tires.

Side note: will something of considerable size mess up my transmission quickly? A regear is a possibility bud id be doin it myself and i dont feel to fond of the idea. I have 3.55 LS. I know my speedomenter will be off but that's fixable and stuff.

Just thought id get everythin in one spot rather than look around this site for another 4 hours (like ive been doing)

ALSO, pics would be greatly appreciated.

Biggest your gonna clear is 33's with no rubbing and 34's with some. The size he said^ would be perfect.

If u don't mind a slightly thinner tire the Terra grapplers come in a 285/75/17 that is about a 34 that would work out good as well.

I'd consider a 295/70-17 (34x12.00). They would be a great fit with your OEM wheels. A 315/70-17 (35x12.50) may fit but it will be tight. Sorta depends on how much your lift spindles increased your front track width. ALso, they are a little wide for the OEM wheels.
