lift size vs. tire size ?????

I am in the process of giving my 95 150 a 6" lift, which when all is said and done, will be closer to 7", all suspension. I am about to by my tires now, and need some advice on what size to buy. I don't have any friends with tires the sive I am thinking of, so I can't " try them on for size". I have seen some examples of trucks with 6" lifts and 35's that look good, and some where I think that they look a little too big for the hole that they are in.

With my 95 150 with a 6" - 7" lift, will 33" tires look O.K. or will they be too small?

I can not afford to buy tires and then decide that they are too big or too small and go get another set.

i've got a 7.5" lift on my truck and 35s, the tires look too big sometimes, sometimes they look like they fit just right. depends how you want your truck to look, if you like the big tire look, go with 35s, if you want the truck to overshadow the tires get 33s
