Hello,
I checked out the max tire size thread, and that gave me some idea of what I can expect, but I plan on getting new rims (these http://www.fueloffroad.com/wheel.cfm?id=2564) as 18x9 and wanted to know what size tire I can/should go with. I tought 255/55/18, but was told those are "low profile" and not really fond with that. I kinda like the size of these tires http://distilleryimage6.ak.instagram.com/ca3f192499bc11e38fc812559e1fd802_8.jpg which I think are 285/70/17? Can't clearly see the middle number. I like the size of the stock tires 235/75/15, so if it's possible that I can get something like that but for 18"s that'd be great.
Thanks!
