My truck in front - 33" Goodyear Duratrac's, stock wheels, leveled using torsion bar crank to 23.5".
Truck in rear - 35" BFG KM2's, stock H3T steel wheels, torsion bar crank.
H3's DO NOT need leveling kits !!!!

Ride is a little stiffer, but I like it better.

Yes it has been asked and answered a hundred times and 35's seem to be the answer.
My thing, being a new H3 owner and new to this site, is what these tires look like on an H3. As a matter of fact I'd like to see as many different combos as you all will post pics of. 33's on stock, 33's on a leveled H3, 33's on a lifted H3, 35's on all the mentioned before and any and all combos you guys and gals have on your H3's. I've gone through the galleries and past posts and it's very time consuming. Also not everyone quotes what combo their running.
I'm also concerned with my performance. Are 35's going to kill the little bit of power and gas mileage I have with the 3.7 liter engine.
So post em up...lets see what ya got!
Thanks, Mike

Mike, here is mine on 35's (315) duratracs before i sold it. The answer to your last sentence is YES, it will hurt gas milage and you WILL notice a power loss contrary to what others say. on hills you will loose your final gear. if i still had the H3 i would have went back to 33's

You have other things to worry about rather than MPG and power loss such as braking and wear on your front end. You will blow CV boots more often than you like fromthe extreme TB crank / angle. I made the mistake putting 2" rear shackles on my Colorado and cranking the TB to fit 33's. I loved the look but busted 3 cv joints in 6 months with mild offroad use.
I decided to go with Cooper Discoverer ST in 285/75/16 and couldn't be happier. They are truly the most aggressive AT tires and tread I have seen. They ride quiet and smooth while handling the trails and snow. At $40 to $60 less per tire than duratracs you can't go wrong. 315's will look great but a constantly rubbing tire is no good. Here are a few pics of them.
