I have a 6" lift already with 35"s but the tires just look too small, I see other people on here run with 36's on 6" lift but does that really make a difference?

My bro said that more aggresive tires will make it look better because at the moment it has bfg all-terrains with rather little tread left? would a more aggresive 35 solve my problem or can I get away with an aggresive 37" mud terrain or a 38" super swamper with no problems?

Just wondering what other people think, I am not rushing to get new tires until everything else on my truck is good

Oh and for your info my intentions are mudding on the 120 acre farm I work on and in the winter romping in the snow

Should be able to get pictures on sometime soon

Thanks, Jeff

I'm not to good with rub issues since I run 31s, but I've seen 35s get run on stock heiht broncos. Just had to cut it to shreds to reduce rub. But 37inch super swampers I would have to say should fit a 6 inch lift.

If your looking for a mor agressive tire but don't want to **** your wallet i woul dhave to say that The Maxxis Bighorn tire is a really good looking tire that holds up well, performs great, and wears like steel. Not to mention they will look pretty good in 37"s

I looked em up and found that they are only available in sizes up to 35's. The tire I found is also only available in sizes up to 35's but is only $130 to $140 a piece...Kumho MT 834s 35's wouldn't do me bad they would look better than what I have now and I can save money for a larger tire along with new gears and a body lift for sometime in the future

yeah 79' i forgot that Maxxis only makes up to a 35 in tire....sorry abou that but the bighorn is a good allaround tire with a mean lookin tread and side lugs for the mud and rock crawling. i have the 31'x10.50's in their other tire the "buckshot" and have used that for a year....mostly street wear on them, i go to college so i don't get to off road to much, but they honestly look good and grab really well in the mud and arn't to ******* the wallet. Maxxis is a good tire thats underated in my book.
