2001 F250 V10 4x4 Lift Question

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 13-Dec-01 AT 05:26 PM (EST)]I currently have a 2001 F250 Superduty 4x4 with 10-10.5in. lift in the front and 8.5 in. in the rear with Mickey Thompson 39/18-16.5 and Weld 16.5/14in. rims. The tires rub when turned all the way to either side. I wanted to put some radials on it and was thinking of puting on either 38/15.5-16.5 super swamper TSL radials or 38/15.5-16.5 radial ground hawgs. After looking into the two tires, I found that the new 10 ply 38in. TSLs weigh even more than my Mickeys (by about 15 pounds each) and some people told me that the ground hawgs seperate easily. Now, my question is, if I put 36/14.5-16.5 super swamper radials on my lift, will it look funny? I can always lower the back about another 0.5in and the front another inch. The shops here in Las Vegas told me that you need about an 8 in. lift to clear those tires because of the width with a 14 in rim. They told me that if the rim was narrower, than a smaller lift (6in.) would be ok (maybe minor rubbing). Just some input on how my truck would look with 10in. lift front, 8 in. lift rear with 36/14.5-16.5 superswamper tires on 16.5-14 in. wheels. Thanks :+ Also, if anyone wants to trade tires, let me know
