ok guys i have a dodge dakota that has a mild drop on it... i was wondering what you all think will look better a tire that is a little lower than stock but fills in my wheel wells or a low profile tire that makes my truck lower to the ground but leaves quite a bit more gap at the wheel wells.... all opinions are welcomed.. oh btw i have stock wheels...

A vehicle always looks best with the wheel well filled IMHO. You can go larger wheels with lower profile tires if you like the low profile look. I think a 50 series is usually a good compromise for ride and profile, especially on a slightly lowered vehicle. Anything lower than a 45 series will create a very rough ride and limited protection for your wheels. Measure how much room you have, determine the profile of tire and then you can match the width of the tire and the size of the wheel to fill in the wheel well.
