They are BFG mudders, $250 with 80% tread and located about 10 minutes from my house. 
Honestly I dont mind the look of my 285's right now... but, I wouldnt mind going a little bigger!
Im going to take off the body lift sometime soon. I'll probably still be able to clear them though without them.
Jeremy... the picts of my car are in my sig

hahah what the heck
i stumbled across this thread where heath poops on me behind my back
jerk.
ill continue to keep my truck as clean as possible, but im not gonna cry over battlescars as long as theyre incurred while wheelin' and not by some grandma in a parking lot.
of course i dont care about bumpers (esp the front one), TJM is comin' up for me by the spring

get them I am going to try them next pretty soon. Most 315/75 are 34.5 so you will probley get a 34 with most brands. I know when I had dunlop 285's they where no 33s more like a 32. My 305/70s mtr's are a little bigger but I like the look you get from 315's. they will work i bet no problem.

I say do it bro! When I get bored of my 295/75/16's I am going to shave the crap off the fender flares and pound the crap out of the wheelwell so I can do a similar setup to 4x4runnerGIrL...

i hope everyone reading this has taken a look at this:
http://www.sonoransteel.com/thirtyfive.html
its just not knocking out the fenders and doing a little cutting here and there. its bigger things like significant gas loss without a regear/big loss in power, lots of stress put on the stock ifs and especially if you wheel it, you will break stuff. dont forget about the a-arms, they need to be shaved. and this is only the minimum...now if you dont wheel/wheel hard, go on. but im not gona go up to 35s just for the look/a little extra ground clearance when i know that i cant wheel it hard without breaking stuff JUST BECAUSE my freaking tires are too big.
