Don't . Kidding.
Me personally would go with 33's. I like the look better. Prices for will be better and I use mine as a DD as well as a toy. I think it's all up to you honestly. What can you afford?

33's are a clean fit and look nice. 35's fill the wheel wells better and will work also with proper bumpstopping. It all depends on what your wanting to do. If tour just driving on street then I would go 35. Crawling I would do 33's. That's just me. If you are just mudding it you could go 38's and just bumpstop so the fact that no one answers you is cause its all in what your doing and your personal preference.

Like they said, it really depends on how you're going to use it. I'm running 35's with a 6.5" RC lift, fenders trimmed, with bushwacker pocket flares. It's mostly my daily driver and I do some light wheeling with it. But again it's up to you.

33's will give you a little better flex unless you trim fenders and do bushwackers. 33's are also cheaper, and offer better mpg. Especially if you run 4:10's rather than 56's but if ur mostly doing wheeling I agree 4:88's are the way to go 33's or 35's.

its mostly my DD with light wheelin here and there... so i prolly need 2 go with 33's so that i can keep flex... but 35's look just bada**

With the flat flares youll still have room with 35's. I dont like having too much "wasted space" in my wheel well. You will deffinatly flex better with 33's but the 35's will be more agressive and add a bit more clearance

35s, definitely. Don't worry about the flex - we are talking about a 1 inch difference in stuff factor. If you are changing the gearing either way, the MPG issue will pretty much be a wash.
When I had 33s on 6.5" and bushwackers, I thought they were too small looking. But it's all opinions
