Im running a 3 inch lift on my 97 2500 and running 265/75/R17's on it. Looking to go bigger. What is a good size tire without overdoing it? I want to buy new wheels and tires preferably a nice mud terrain but not to aggressive and not to expensive. What do yall reccomend. I would like to see some pics of what some of yall have to get an idea of what would look good on mine.

 

I've always thought that 4.5" looked about right...maybe 6 on a LWB extended cab truck. Much over that you start lookin like a poser, not to mention the added stresses on your truck.

I don'twant to go bigger on the lift just on the tires and maybe a 2 inch leveling kit in the front. Want to know what size tires would look good

 

A friend has 285/75/16's on his truck and they fill the wheel wells nicely but look too wide for the stock rim. I was going to jump up to this size until I noticed how they curve in to the rims. They look "poochy".
