265/75/16 if you don't do much off roading, 255/85/16 if you do off road some. I have a 3" lift with 265/75/16 and like it for mild to moderate off roading, towing needs, and use as my DD, looks pretty good too. There are tons of pics of both on here.

yeah 265 or 255/85 are better for speed, braking, turning etc on the road. You lose less MPG since it has less road contact, same thing with acceleration and less to rotate.
