Just save up for a 6 inch lift and run 35's and be confident. Your 265/75/16 will be just fine until you save up, I've tried talking myself into different directions as well but I'm just gonna save up for the Dick Cepek 6" lift like Bowtiefreak has.

Can anyone post up a pic of a tahoe with larger off road tires at stock ride height? I have a 95 4 door and would like to keep the stock wheels and run a larger more aggressive tire without jacking up the suspension. Just wondering what it would look like, I don't go muddin' but we get some snow and there's some bad roads out in these parts.

If I was going to purchase a lift, it would be no more than 3-4 inches. I daily drive my Tahoe and its just not practical to daily drive something with a 6 inch lift IMO. If it was just a weekend toy, I would because I think the 6 inch lift looks sweet, but for me its just not practical.
