Default 2000 blazer...need suggestions for new tires

2000 blazer and im looking for new tires and possibly new rims for it too. thinking about getting a 2inch body lift on it soon, so please send tires that would work with this and have no problem with rubbing. thanks

yes you can fit stock tires on those rims, I would go 235/75/15 if you wanna stay stock, but 30x9.5's will fit at stock height as well, but may rub at full lock depending on the backspacing you get.

1996 4x4

I have Uniroyal Liberators 30x9.50 on stock rims - available only at wally world, but they have a 500 treadwear rating! Have not noticed any road roar - only issue is during the winter they "thump" for the first mile untill the tire warms up and gets "round' again. That 500 treadwear = stiff rubber in the cold. about $110 ea. However - my spare no longer fits under the chassis. The bigger tire hits my box reciever frame.

They fit with no problems - I have a stock suspension - can turn full each direction.

a co worker has 97 Blazer with 235/70's and I sit noticeably higher than him.
