Default Tire Recommendations

I am finally thinking about replaced my 33" Maxxis tires that have been on the truck since I purchased it. I was wondering what y'all recommend? I would prefer a smaller tire just to increase the gas mileage and the life span of the tires, but I have also thought about getting 35s for it but wasnt sure if they would rub since I have the offroad edition. I am kind of up in the air right now.

Thanks

35's wont fit stock, and will do murder on your gas mileage and power with the stock gears.

He has 4.10's at least..... 33's shouldn't be any problem. Going smaller may or may not affect fuel mileage.

Get 35's! I wish I would have. I'm assuming you have the off road addition? If you do they'll look great (if you want that "off road" look). But it will make your city gas mileage worse.
