If not, do you think 33's will look too small with a 6" lift? Also, what brand and type of tire do you recommend. I'm not a frequent off-roader. Would mainly be for occasional play and the just in case times as well as the aggressive looks. Any one have any reasonably priced recommendations? Any insight would be great. thanks.
I'm not sure, but I think I've read some posts on here that you can make 35s work with a 3" body lift, but you will also have to crank your torsion bars and do quite a bit of trimming...not to mention many on this forum will advise you to stay away from body lifts.

33s would look way small with a 6" lift... If you spend the money for such a lift, then definitely go with 35s... 33s would just not look good. Personally, I like a 4" lift. Enough to get you outta trouble and look aggressive, and a little cheaper. 6" lifts are sweet, though.
