what do you guys feel would be the better all around set up for looks and not sucking horsepower or the following on my truck with a 7 inch lift:

325 65r18 dune graps 68lbs 34.92 inch tall

37 12.50r18 dune graps 78lbs 36.50 inch tall

both are very light compared to other tires. the 37 is actually lighter than a toyo mt 35 12.50.

I would like to keep weight down but I dont know if the 325's will be too small on the truck.

Rims are attached: 18x10.5 welds fresh powder...

I always like a full wheel well... So in that case I would go with the 37s or run the 325s and lower your susp down enough to make the wheel wells look full with the 325s...

I dont think i mind if the funders are not stuffed as long as it looks good. See attached, 35's on an 8 inch lift.

I can always re-gear I just dont want to lose a lot of torque over looks alone.

Thanks for the pics, keep in mind though that the wrong wheel can ruin the look of a truck too. I think that a wider 10 or 12 inch wheel with 35's would look better than any 37 on a skinny wheel with the wrong offset. In your case 35's and the xd's made a big difference. looks good

I agree on the 35's that are wide. Wider tires always look better. Acouple of pict of my old truck with 35x12.50 on 6 in of lift
