I'm getting ready to install my heavy duty OME lift on my 97 D1 and wanted to see what kinds of tire size recommendations you guys might have. I'm considering 235 85R16.

Let me know what you think.

 

Thats what I use exactly BFG AT. Love it.

 

I have OME HD 2" and run 245/75/16 , I have drop away articulation no rubbing

 

235/85/16 is perfect.

 

Fish those taller then stock or just wider? Mine are taller an narrow I guess

 

235/85/16 is taller but same width as stock

 

I have a 2 inch Terrafirma lift and run that size and I'm really happy with it so far. You will probably need to do a camel cut on the rear quarter panels and adjust your steering stops to avoid rubbing. Both really easy to do.
I use Goodyear Duratracs. I got 5 tires for around $850 mount and balanced.

 

I don't remember what stock is anymore, LOL.
The first number is always the width, in mm's. So your 245 is 10mm wider than 235's.

The second number is the aspect ratio. The percentage of the width that the sidewall is tall. 235x.85= 199.75mm tall sidewall.

 

235/70/16 is stock

 

I also run 245/75/16 on a 2in lift
