i think i might just go 285 75 16, to be safe, i might need to crank the torsion bars just to level the front end.

00_Grn_Dak, the tires are great! I've had them on the truck for over a year now and I have no complaints. They are good on road and offroad. They have a slight vibration/noise to them on the road, but not to bad. They were also cheaper than the BFGs and ProComps.

Ya my truck fits in the garage. I'll have to measure it when I get the chance, but I know that I have at least 2-3 inches before I would hit something.

As for tires and wheels it's all personal preference. I haven’t heard anything about the Baja Radials but I would think they would be decent. If you want a nice looking and quite tire then get the BFG ATs. They are really quite. Check places like 4wheelparts.com and tirerack.com for tires and wheels.

How much are you willing to spend on someone installing ur BL? Probably around $500 for a $200 Lift. Doesn't really look that complicated as long as you have a full day. I'm gonna do it as soon as I can spare the money. Tires gotta go with it.
