new tires

alright, I'm going to be shopping for new rubber for my 150, and I was looking for a little advice. I have a 77 with a 6" susp. and 3" body lift. I am running 35x12.5 radials right now. I want to bump up to about 37" or 38" tires, and I would kinda like to stick with radials if possible. I live on the coast of NC, so I deal with a lot of sand and soft mud, but not a whole lot in the way of rocks or hills. This is my second truck , so it won't see a whole lot of blacktop. I was trying to get some good ideas for styles and brands, and I wanted to find out if anyone had clearance problems running tires that large.
