help with tire size

hey guys i have a 2000 ranger 4x4 xcab and im wanting to get new tires here soon. im wanting a mud tire or something with aggressive tread. my suspension is stock but im going to crank my tbars. so what size tire should i get i have the 16in rims also. im wanting a bigger tire someone told me 265 75 r 16 would look good or is there anything bigger i could go with. does anyone have a pic of the 265 75's on a ranger already.....thanks guys!

Best overall tire on here, is the BFG All Terrain. It is aggresively patterned, gets you in and out of anything (snow, rain, dry, rock, dirt,), has incredible tread life, and is quiet.

If you want a M/T, or mud-terrain, go with the new BFG KM2's, they are new, not many people have em, and look damn sexy.

265/70 i'd say... lets you maintain the low end torque with a slightly shorter sidewall, and you'd likely not have as much roll in corners....
