Default My time for new tires - Firestone Destination MT

I know there are lots of posts re tires, so I'd understand if nobody replies!

I run 18 inch rims (Sahara), 95% road, 5% Mud.

So I'm thinking no Mud Tires unless I get a new set of rims.

But, my stock tires 255/70 R18 have been pretty good on mud.

So, maybe if I get an AT Tire, but in the 275 range (33"), I may have the best of both worlds?

Thinking of doing that and lifting 2.5". The times I've gotten stuck (I think) have been because the differentials have dragged onto the mud. So maybe bigger AT Tires and 2.5" lift will do it for me?

Suggestions?

Thanks in advanced!!!

Wife in nursing school...as soon as she graduates I will be celebrating with 5...count em 5...Firestone M/T tires.

Being a nurse, she can never call off work due to bad weather so the added security of these tires is a must...or at least that's what I have her thinking!
