I went with 32s the 1 inch doesnt make a difference in mileage but it fills out the fender so much nicer and it looks great

3.5"ish with 31x10.5 r15 MT/Rs with Kevlar. Trimmed a little off the bumper endcap but for the most part, it stuffs and doesnt rub. Every once and a while a flare will come undone but it doesnt really bother me. I just put it back on. I run without front or rear sways and its not too tippy because of the fact I have 2 extra leaves in the rear. I can unseat the springs up front but my CAs are what are holding me back now. I have a set of RE SF arms that I need to find time to put in. With the mt/rs, it gets about 19 mpg on the highway. I run it without the roof rack which makes a huge difference.

3.5 inch super flex kit with a comanche shackle out back. 245x75r16 Mt/r's with moabs from a Rubi.
With bumpers it sits pretty well, but I needed the shackle cause I hate the fake prerunner look.
