Default 6" lift with 35's photos needed, please!

Hey all I recently lifted my truck with a tough country 6" lift. I was hoping to run 35's.
Please post pics if you have a 6" lift and 35's!

I know everyone says to go with 37's but im leaning towards 35's.

Thanks guys!

Hey bud! Congrats on the lift! Jus wonderin though...why 35's? I have a Kore 3 in level kit on my 06 and 35's fit it nice....but a 6 in lift!? Understandably there is, of course, a premium on the larger tires....but ya might wish ya spent the extra green! Anyways, i'm sure it would look good either way. Good luck!

Im not worried about the money end of it, I just dont care for the stuffed look. Ive seen 6's with 35's before that looked really clean.
Now that I have done my lift all I see is 37' and 33's.
#7 will fit but if you do any off roading they rub horribly, thats from the horses mouth. Not that Im an off road nut, but I want good clearance all the way around with good looks. Thats why Im leaning towards the 35's. Just need some pics to verify.
Thanks everyone.

moconst,
I can send you one tomorrow of a buddies freshly done 05 with a 6" and 37", be warned that running 37"s you'll be limited somewhat by the rims you have to pick from, most rims will either rub on the rear of the wheel well or on the control arms. I went with a Superlift 6" and 37"s and my freshly painted to match fender flares where chipped within days from the tires hitting them. I now have 9" of lift just to clear the 37" when I’m off road.

Thanks 03, I will check it out. Thats my main concern when it comes to 37's. I dont want to have to worry about rubbin.
I think I have decided on 35 12.50 17 cooper stt's. I had them before and they were good to me.

I currently have the Coopers on my truck, I have about 50% tread left and just found out that one of the tires is .045 out of round, apparently this is common with Coopers and that's why they are less money than BFG's and others of the same size.....I liked how they worked in the sand for me, but never could get them to ride or sound right and now i know why. If you can afford them i would suggest BFG M/T's, i had them before my Coopers and got about 50,000 miles out of them.

Here's the picture i mentioned, let me know if it loads...First time posting a picture on this site.
