New Tires

I need new tires and was wondering what would fit. I have a 2002 Chevy 2500HD it currently has 285-75 R16 BFG's on it i would like to go bigger so what size should fit? The truck is all stock.

You would have to crank the torsion bars up to fit 35s.

Even with a 4" lift you have to trim the front lower bumper piece so 35" wont rub.
