Tire upgrade, clearance?
Im looking to replace the stock pizza cutters and wheels on my truck. After reading the various posts, Im leaning towards either 305 or 315's in BFG AT's. 4" lift or hangers? I have to still get Mamma and the kids into the truck without a fight...Any suggestions?

i take it from your post that this is just for looks. don't blame ya! i'd also like to say bravo. the fact that your wife and kids are an important factor in your descisions tells me that you most likely put them first and foremost in everything you do. there should be more dads out there like you. 
back to the topic. a leveling kit and 305s would probably be best for you. rim size is up to you, personally i like 16x10s best. you could put 305s or even 285s on the stock rim with no lift, which would still get rid of the donuts and save some cash. if ease of entry is a concern, i wouln't lift it. the seat height is already extremely high from the factory.
hope this helps

Phat02, thanks for your input. Ive read alot about noise from the springs in the leveling kits. I havent noticed much to level out, I suspect I have the "X" springs, but since Im still in Kuwait I cant check at the moment.
