    I am putting on a 3 inch lift on my baby soon. Just can't decide what tore size I should run. 285/75/16's? I don't want a whole lot of mpg killed, and I still want to be able to some what pass people on the highway. Without re-gearing anytime soon. What are y'all running in your i4

    I run 265-75-16 on TRD OR rims right now, with 2.5 in the front, and 3 in the back. They ride great, and the trucks handles them well, but they also look a little small in the wheel well. I have a new set of 255-75-17 BFG Mud Terrain KM's to put on, as soon as someone close comes off a set of TRD Sport wheels. If I was going to buy new tires, I would try the 255-80-16's. They have a bunch of good reviews.
