good all terrain tread + long life huh. Sounds good to me. I won't go too toyo's and mickey tompsons looked good. also how are they for hauling? good ply? Plus also thought about a set called Wranglers, don't know a whole bunch about em. Just saw em at Les Schwab but i'll definatly give the Pro Comps a try.

guys run 35's on 2" of lift all the time, depending on the rim offset you may or maynot have rubbing.

my pro comps are E rated...

35's without a lift/level is pushing it. It depends on the tire width and the wheel backspacing, but most likely they will rub. I even did 33's on my truck with the level, so that way they definetly won't rub.

Oh yeah... just saw Steve's E rating post. Mine are E rated also, I think it is like 3195lbs a piece. I towed a 10,000lb bobcat on a4,000lbtrailer the other day, felt just like the factory tires.

one thing to mention... you need to also look at the tire width... my 33's are 13.0" wide IIRC, a 12" wide tire would fit easier than the xtremes for a 2" lift...
