Remember, if you run tires w/that short of a sidewall you'll be spooked by every pothole you drive by. Try a 275/45 or 295/40 out back & a 245/40 minimum in front. IMO( & you know what they say about opinions) I would stay away from 35 series for a street vehicle unless you only drive it ocassionally. Those new 275/45's for the factory size would actually be better for the front but they need an 8.5" wheel for optimum sizing. My friend is using the 275/45's on his 2001 & they are just right for ride quality.

yea it would be nice to run 275/45s for some extra meat however those are 30" tires. most guys going for 20s on their truck usually also have the thing hammered pretty low and such tires might not be possible. i wanted to run 255/35/20 and 285/35/20 on my truck, although ive been reconsidering 18"s since 20s just cost too damn much

True they are taller but they look sweet on my friends 01' & I think w/the correct b.space & width they would prob look good on our trucks, & that is exactly why I have 245/45/18's on the front of my 67 RestoRod, I just can't fit that tall of a tire in the front (I'm hacking up the fender wells as it is).
