Joe,
32x11.5 fit nicely on an '00. From the factory, we can only get a max
of 31" tires. I was planning on BFG A/T KO's; I saw a pair of 31s on
another Dak one night around town and they looked nice, and they really
improved the appearance of my brother's '94 Jimmy (he can only run
30x9.5). I like that squared-off edge. My other thought was Michelin
LTX as they're quite sticky and seem to last forever. I'll poke around
tirerack.com and check out those Yokohamas though.
