BFG All Terrain KO2's. 315/70-R17 LT's. These are the Ford Raptor load-range-C replacements, so softer sidewalls than the E-range tires. Love the quiet highway ride and I've rotated each tire to each corner and have zero balance issues right out of the box.
No lift, but I replaced the front springs. Stock 2-Dr. springs were -16. Replacement 4-dr springs were -19. This raised my front 3/4" and gave me a level stance. Also added Genright flat fenders.
Couple of "issues." The KMC wheels have a 3.5" backspace. 4.5" would have been much better as they stick out a bit far for my liking. And because of that backspacing I had to do major surgery on my Rugged Ridge tailgate hinge/carrier to get the spare to sit in tight. At full inward adjustment there was a gap of almost 2" between the tire and the mount. It looked like crap and certainly would have added stress to the system. So lots of time with a cutoff wheel and drilling all new holes in the tire mounting bracket and it now sits about 1/4" from the mount. Much better.

2016 Sahara, AEV 2.5DS with JKS Quicker discos and Pintlers wrapped with 35 12.50 17 KM2s. Teraflex tire carrier with a VCP Pintler 3rd brake light. Eaton E Locker in the front, Truetrac in the rear and 4.88 gears. Centric premium rotors and Black Magic pads for a brake upgrade which are amazing. Also a bunch of little interior mods to go along with it like Wet Okoles and Tuffy stuff along with an upgraded Radio just to name a bit of it. Just started my build and it might be a bit for bumpers and a winch, gotta get the floors done in the house 😁
