Default what size tires would look the best?

Brand new here, so bear with me, I am thinknig of adding a 6inch lift kit to my 03 silverado. it will be done professionally, so heres my question. What size of rims & tires do you guys think would look best after I install the lift? I want to stick to the black out theme I have going, so all black rims would be the best, and I olny want my tires to stick out a little on the sides. so any thoughts?

on a 6 inch lift...35s for sure. are you gettin new rims? if not then 35x12.5x20 inch tires. What offset do your rims have that you have on it not? if you are gettin new rims then a -12 offset will poke them out. I have 33x12.5x20 with a -12 offset and they poke out a little bit but its perfect

what about a 4" lift with 285/75's?
you'll get WAY better gas mileage than a 300 or 315
and tire will still look proportional
