Default new to this, what tires to get?

i just picked up a 92 4runner that needs new tires. i'm new to all this, so i'm looking for a size recommendation. I don't plan to go off-roading, but it would be nice to have something that's capable in the snow, decent on the highway, and looks good. the stock tires look really pussy on this thing, but i think 31" tires might be overkill. the stock wheels are 15", not sure how wide but it's looking like width isn't a huge issue when picking truck tires.

discount tire direct gives me these optional sizes:
225/75 (stock)
235/75
255/70
265/70
30/950
31/1050

your thoughts?

i would go 31's but thats me..

if you want you can check your axle code. you truck may have the 31" tire option which menas it was geared differently.

use this page as a reference.
