NO and No......To the stock thing or 14's <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/barf.gif" alt="" /> Thanks for those votes though.
Still not sure yet cause some of these tires are around $250 each! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
Sure wish I had that 3 inch body lift though....

31. I went with a used set of 30 to try out, but I think when it's time to get new shoes i'll go up to 31". These trucks don't have any power anyway, and they already get pretty crappy mileage, so I don't think the extra inch will be all that much worse.

Another tire size to toss in is 265/75-15. They are 30.5 inch diameter. Haven't found any muds for this size but did find some AT's and snow tires. If you want taller and a little narrower than 30x9.50's these could be used for onroad.

If you need 1" more clearance and bling factor: 31" If you need more power and fuel saving factor: 30"
I voted for 30" cause I thought you had enough clearance as is. And probrably needed the fuel saving to get to the trails, and added power to tear up the TX desert...

No, I believe your assumption to be spot on! Didn't his wife post a complaint some time back about that very subject. I think she referred to him as PeeWee Tex <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/baby.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Hydra, if you're worried about cost, how about some retreads? I'm on my 3rd set of their mud terrain tires, I've had good luck with them. http://www.treadwright.com/
