I chose the BFG 33x9.50 15. They are the right height and yet lower rotational mass then the 12.50 tires out there. I am only running the stock 6 and need all the power I can get.
As for cost I fount mine at www.4wheelparts.com they are currently selling for $127 vs. about $180 retail each...

What tire size?
