I personally hate life with my 33's and 4-7. I can't imagine 35's and no gear.......

And BTW.... I call BS on the running 35's with no level or lift of any kind, AND no rubbing at all....

In my opinion, a 33" tire will make the truck seem bigger than a 35 anyway (with a 6" lift). I would have gone down to 33 if i didnt plan on lifting the truck more. I love frogs stance... 35's with 9" lift. 33's with 6" lift would give about the same proportions.

^^^ im kinda back and forth when it comes to this, i like the tire to fit good under the truck but then again i dont like it whens theres alot of space, but again i dont like the looks of a huge tire that hugs the fenders either... but the more space u have the more room u got to work with too

Ok, i thought so, becuz those 33's fit great under a 6" lift, because i only have 2.5" levelin kit, and i almost have as much room inbetween the tires and fenders as u do, and i run a 33.8 (305s) but im a 4x4.. i was just curious
