What size tires do you have now? You can run 285/75-16s on the stock rims w/o a lift. Some type of all terrain tread would look good. BFG A/Ts look good, but are expensive and also don't perform that well in the mud (at least they didn't on my truck). If you put a lot of highway miles on your truck you may not want too aggressive of a tread.
