Disco Lift- Bigger Tires- BEFORE the Lift?

Wait for the lift. You'll have to anyway. I went with the HD OME springs front and rear. I also went with 16" wheels, 265/75/16 BFG TAs and certainly can't complain. My mileage might have suffered a bit, but not by much. The type of tire you run will have an impact on how your rig performs off the line. My buddies with MT tires say the added weight of the tire makes accellerations pretty lame.
One thing that really sucks about Discos is the lack of lockers or a CLD. Having tires capable of being air'd down to 18-20psi certainly helps, so be very picky with your tire selection.

Go fatter if you want less traction, if you want more go with the 245/75-16, the wider the tire the less traction you'll see, more float but less traction. The main reason for really wide tires is driving in very deep snow, deep mud where you can't bottom onto something to push off, or sand. For most use more narrow puts more PSI on the road. This is one reason I went 245/75-16, but I also happen to think they look better. I went with the Firestone Destination2 MT and love them so far.

I have an 03 Disco.
Not sure about the CDL, what does that stand for?
