no use spending the money on meats now before getting a noticable huge lift.... then you're either unhappy with disproportioned tires for a few years until they wear out, OR you dump more $$$ on the "right" size

if you HAVE to get bigger tires now because you might die without them, get some used jobs off craigslist from a guy that couldn't wait, then didnt like the look post lift. they are cheaper that way
