Pics Of 4x4 With Short 17" Tires?

Im trying to figure out what size tire to run on my truck. I have hummer h2's and want to go back to a shorter street style tire. like a 31x12.5 but cant come up with anything that tall. or that wide in that height. looking from some pics of shorter tires on a 17x8-9 inch wheel. thanks

I think the 315 is more like 34.5 and the 305 is close to 32.5.

I could be completely wrong but check out www.tirerack.com they have tons of easy to select options for sizes which can probably get you closer to what your looking for.

tire rack doesnt have anything. and its tough to browse sizes. I found toyo makes one and its close to 31. I see guys at the track with street tread tires that are short. but my truck sits real tall

295/70R17's just a smidge over a 33 tall and 11.5 wide... use this conversion site for assistance.
