these are the rims I may be getting at 16 x 8. What size tires should I put on them for that more aggressive stance I'm looking for with out getting a lift. I may have a lift coming soon, but not for now.

Hello. I wonder if any of you could give me an idea for a cheap wheel tire combo. I have a bone Stock 07 X JK. I wish to give a better "look" to the stance of the Jeep. You know, wider tires and decent rims. I have no lift yet, so I want something that will still look good if I ad a 2" lift later. I do not rock climb or do anything extreme with my Jeep (until its paid off). I only go off road on dirt trails and a little mud, just to have a little fun in the outdoors. 
I mainly use my JK for a commuter so I need a decent A/T tire that is primarily for occasional off road and gets good wear on asphalt. Thank you for any advice.

the AT's i got have a decent tread pattern, are siped, and i think perform well offroad.
heres some pics... scroll down... mine is the jeep green one

I went with the Wrangler Silent Armors (they are ~180-200 / tire). There are better pure off-road tires (esp for mud), but these tires are superb in snow and great offroad. I went with 275/70/R18's and a I get slight rub at full turn. I'm in the process of installing a Teraflex buget lift w/new shocks. Lift kit is $360-$400.
