tires for 94 22re

I'd say 31x10.50R15s with stock gearing.
As far as tires go, since you want to stick with an a/t, I'd say BFG A/Ts. They ride good, pretty quiet, and last a good while.

yeah, i got the l/t's and they are sweeeeet. almost silent, nice wear, and great stability in water. i've also gone on the beach in some pretty soft stuff with no issues whatsoever
great tire
edit: i do not have a/t's. i have l/t's. the previous comment is my opinion of l/t's.
(note to self: yotatech after coffee)

I ran a set of BFT ats. Really great tire, But also look at the general grabber at. Sort of a clone from the BGF. They have thinner sidewalls, so its a little softer for the road, but still a great tire and a little cheaper.

For a daily driver, I never liked anything bigger than 31"... larger tires just suck the power and mileage right out of the 22re, IMO.
In fact, I switched from 31x10.5 to a 30.5x9.5 and there was a noticeable difference in get up, and a difference in mileage as well.

yep..BFG A/T's are pretty much the best A/T out there.
i've heard of people getting upwards of 80,000 miles out of a set.
seen a company truck that had ~72,000 miles on it...it's had BFG A/T's (285/75's) on it from day one (as in took it from the dealer, straight to the tire shop and got the tires.) and they still had more than 1/8th in. of tread left.

31x10.50x15 BFG A/T KO's for me... Last 3 sets. I put 100K on the last ones and they STILL have tread. They were cracking a lil, but that's normal after that many miles.
I've always loved how quiet they are for their capabilities. I also LOVE the longevity. Really surprised as to how many are in agreement on this thread. Couple times I've posted the same thing and people commented saying, "Couldn't pay me to run BFG AT's.... Each to his own, I suppose. Just gotta love the lifetime warranty and roadside hazard assistance, etc. of the BFG's... IMHO, lol.
Best wishes with your choice,
Mark

You don't have to re-gear for 38's, but just like cable warping itself around the drum, every inch, every time it winds around the drum it makes a difference.
Any change in diameter effects the "effective" gearing of your truck.
Factory tires were 28". So, like the cable on a winch drum, start adding layers...
28" = 4:10's
29" = 4:00
30" = 3:90
31" = 3:80
32" = 3:70
33" tall tires, make your effective gear a ratio of 3:60.
And the truck was made to run with 4:10's.
It's just how much of it are you willing to trade off before you re-gear it.
There are factory 4:30's, 4:57's and 4:88's available.
And since Toyota's are a "drop out" just like a Ferd 9", you don't have to jack the truck up head high or remove the entire axle to re-gear it

If I put on a lot of miles, I'd strongly consider aluminum rims and 235's or 30 inch tires. When I bought my first Yota it had salt pitted aluminum 15X7 American racing wheels with a tire that looked like it belonged on a Crown Victoria or a station wagon. They were awesome on the road.

I had a set of 33 BFG A/T and loved them. Wear was great and no matter what terrain I was on they never had to much of a problem. I also got close to 80,000 miles on set of tires and I drove like a bat out of ____.
