I plan on going with a 3" perform. access. lift very soon and i wanna add tires. I dont want them to be HUGE but i want good clearance without sacrificing the driving ability because im not going to be doing much off roading. Any recommendations on size of rims and tires?

31's are fine, for everyday driver, who hardly goes offroad, and 33's in my opinion are as big as u wanna go, any bigger than that and some ppl will be jumping in there truck with a ladder, lol, id say go with 31's most trucks dont need lift for 31's if there is rubbing take off ur mud flaps

Guessing it must be a 1998 or newer if it had 245/75R16s on it (you should put that info in your profile :icon_thumby: ).

285/75R16 would fit well on that truck with a 3" bodylift.

+1 or a 33x12.50x15 if you go with a 15' wheel, thats a really popular fitment with a 3' b/l

would a 285/75/16s reduce milage? i dont want to add anything to make my driving worse as it is my daily driver and work truck. Would they fit on a stock rim?

A slight mileage reduction is possible, yes.

What axle ratio does your truck have?
