I need 5 new tyres before I get it back on the road, so need to make a decision sooner rather than later.
It will be a daily driver, and will run up and down the dual carriageway quite regularly. I'd prefer it to be comfortable on the motorway- will help the mpgs too!
Sam_Doman-
Depends on your definition of comfortable but a light Ute with a lift kit and large A/T tyres is going to bounce around a lot. You'd need to get advice on spring rates and dampers to make it ride well and handle. At a guess I'd say soft is good?

Overdrive unit?
Are you changing the rims?
Where does the speedo get it drive from? Increasing the rolling radius means speedo will read wrong.

Bigger wheels/tyres would help slightly with the revs. Do you really care though, are you foreseeing long m-way drives? In general my armchair advice would be get it driving first then make your own assessment.
