amilla what kind of wheeling do you do that your better off with 10.50s?Around where i live its mostly mud/dirt, hills, trails etc what width do you recommend for that

That's the same kind of terrain we have around here, with the exception of snow.
With at light weight vehicle like a samurai you don't need wide tires.  With to wide of tires it make it difficult to steer on softer terrain. With narrow tires there is more weight put down in a smaller area and allows it to turn better. AKA pizza cutter effect.

With the standard 3x2 lift you probably don't want to go beyond 31" tires.   Any more then that and you will have to start cutting your fenders up pretty bad.  Or good, depending on your point of view.
