Default First Gen CRV Lift

I am wanting to know what size tires would look best on a gen 1 crv with a 1 inch lift?


Also what type of gas mileage should I expect with bigger tires

I've got an OME lift with 215/75/15 BFG AT/TA's and I get around 19-20 mpg.

Engine runs pretty poorly. Part of the reason I'm doing a full build. My spare b20 looked brand new inside and it had 410,000 km on it, too bad I didnt swap it into my V and rebuild this one.
