Default Which tire size do i pick?

I have a 1989 chevy k2500 light duty so its a six lug. Its an extended cab long box, its black on top and bottom and has a red stripe goin down the middle, anyways it has a 3 inch body lift and i have a set of 285 75 16 tires on it that need replacing at the end of the summer, a lot of my buddies are startin to run 285s stock and since i have a lift i want somethin bigger! I just have the 16 inch 99 to 02 wheels on it. I was wonderin if anyone tried 295 75 16 or 305 75 16 and if they had a pic of their truck i could look at. I want to fill my wheel wells the best i can! Any help would be great thanks!

Matt

i had a buddy with 3 inch body lift in his half ton runnin 35 12.5 boggers. which a 35 isnt to much bigger than a 285.( i know every one says 265=31 285=33 but it isnt the case. match em up side by side youll see) id look for some 35s maybe 36.
