Theres a link to the tire that I am looking at... The main reason I am lookin at this tire is because well..I havent found much for a 22" wheel thats a 35" tire. Most of the 22's are 37" tire which is too big for me.

(I like the current profile I have of 305/55/20 or 33.2x12x20) and to keep that profile Im going to need to go to 22's when I go to 35's.

I noticed rockstar22 you are running a 35x22 on rockstars, is it this tire? What other tires are options for me? I cant find any really besides superswampers. The truck rarely sees the off-road, so a beefy all-terrain is what I prefer.

Right now I am running the pro-comp extreme ATs because they are beefier than some mud tires but have a 40,000 mile warranty. They arent avail in the size I desire or I would be sticking with them. Long lasting and looks are my main concern, I dont mud it more than a few times a year.

Yeah thats the tire im running. I like them, they have a mildly aggressive sidewall and a nice tread pattern. I have about 15k miles on them, and im at about 50-60% tread life remaining.

Not the best daily driver tire, but just don't expect good mileage from them and you will be good. Have you thought of maybe going with a smaller wheel? As you noticed, not much in the 22" range as far as off-road tires go.

I already have a smaller wheel actually. I am the 20" rockstars on 33's, when I bought them I was only planning on doing a leveling kit. With a 6" lift I am going to try and run the 20's and 33's but I think its going to look a little small, I could just go with 35's with the 20" rockstars, but I like the look of the wheel/tire combo now, so If i wana go 2" up on the tire size I want to go 2" up on the wheel diameter to compensate.

There are alot more options if I stick with the 20" wheel, but the 22's look so much better in my opinion. They actually look big, the 20's dont look big on the truck at all.
