Default Wanting new tires

I'm going to need to get new tires soon i want to get bigger tires but i plan on lifting mine 3 inchs next spring i was thinking of getting 235/75R15 for it but i was wondering if anybody has any pictures of a jeep with those tires with a 3 inch lift because i need the tires first and i dont want it to look goofy if those tires are to small with a 3 inch lift.

There's plenty of people on here who have done that, apparently. A google image search came up with mostly examples from this site.

I don't know who's this is, but it is someone on this site:

Most 235s are slightly cheaper than 30s, and depending on the tires when you get to 30-31s your mileage can take a hit.
I have approx 3" in front with some fairly worn 235s. They look alright. IF you want to see them, go to the naxja forums, sierra chapter, toy drive thread. On the last page there are a couple pics that I posted. My Username over there is Johnnie Walker.
