With that size of lift I'd go 33's or 35's. Stock size is 31's for a 4x4.

Most members have 33's if they have a lift., but there is a member named Blaze who has 35's on his Dak which has 5.5 inches of lift I believe. Looks good but anythng bigger would look silly imo.

If you're going to use it off-road, go with 33s. 35s will hit the fenders when it flexes (unless you also have a body lift).
