Well, I went ahead and got the 35's. I could only talk the guy down about $3/tire. He seemed pretty ****** about that much. I went with a 315/75/16 Nitto Terra Grappler. Man said I should get around 45-50,000 out of them if I don't smoke them (which I'm gonna do my best not to do). They really look awesome. There's moderate rub at full lock on the lower control arm, but a new set of wheels (which hopefully won't be to far behind ) should solve that problem. Thanks for the input yall.
Don't count on wheels solving your problem. The proper backspace for an 8" wide wheel is 5.5" Wider than that and you need more backspace to keep the offset at +20mm.

If you start shopping for improper wheels to solve your tire rubbing, you are going to cause all kinds of problems for the suspension. If you can't find the proper wheel, then stick with the OEMs and suck up having the rub or the smaller tires.
