Default tire question

i got a stock 99 4x4 blazer, and as it sits now it has 215/70/15 with no lift. i'm thinking about replacing the tires i would like to keep the rims tho. but i would like to go with more aggressive looking tires cause they just look at bit to small for it if ya know what i mean. what would be the best size to make it look good with out the lift and even later on when i get around to setting it up with a lift. thanks

Yep... you can install up to a 31x10.50-15 on your stock wheels.

From what I've seen from other members yes it would just fill up the majority of your wheel well. look at bandidolenny's signature it should give you an idea as he is running 31" tires.

30x9.50x15 or 245-75-15 which is right about 29.5 tall and 9.6 wide.

most blazers come stock with 235/75/15. mine measured about 29.5" when I had 235's. funny thing is they are maybe 1/2" shorter than my 31's
