My nephew is running the 35's on his 97 4x4
with no lift kit

I run the uniroyal libirators on my 4x4 I tried
2 diff types of cooper the discover a/t and the
st's very noisy tires the uniroyals have better
traction than either cooper did

the coopers costing twice as much only lasted
30,000 miles the uni's rated for 50,000

with the V6 the 33's would work fine

I have many customers who like the BF goodrich
tires

I had some 30" Goodrich A/T KO's on my '98 4x4 V6 automatic and they look great but don't last very long. I am running the Toyo Open Country now.

They hold up pretty well for me - that's what I plow with. I've seen them go 70,000 on lighter trucks; but I don't expect that for my heavier gen 3. When I was plowing with a taco, I'd put 40,000 on them - then hand them down to my father in law with close to half the tread left.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way

I am also a big fan of the BFG AT's. I have a set of 31's that have 90,000 miles on them and still have some tread left. I put 40,000 miles on them on my Gen II Dak and swapped them onto my current 2000 Dak when I got it, which is a lot like yours, V6, 4x4, 5 speed, 3.55 gears. I rotate them every 10,000 miles.
One of the best all around tires, and the longevity can't be beat.
