I have to say when I replaced my shocks and springs with aftermarket stock-height parts, the car felt significantly higher. I could tell because it was harder to get in. There must have been some sag, but I didn't bother measuring.

Thanks all for the input, there are so many threads on the subject, it is def. confusing. I guess mine is a 'Mall Queen' it's never been of road and has almost exactly 80k miles. My wife drives it gently around town, that's about it.
So, I will pick one of these two sizes in, probably a BF Goodrich: 235 85 16 or
245 75 16 as per your comments.......do I hear any objections with either if these two?
Many thanks for those who took the time to give me feedback!
Cheers!

+1 on learning something new. I married my wife 3 years ago and it's her truck. Stack of papers the size of a phone book with every service and receipt ever done since she drove it off the lot, new. Only been in NorCal from 2002-2011 and North Texas since 2011. Garage kept. Never off road. Rarely in rain.

So I am driving a "Mall Queen"? LOL. That's alright. Looks like mine's done yoga all her life. Looking good and natural for her age. :-)
