Thumbs up Pics of 4X4's with stock suspension and (whatever) size tires.

Post up pics of 4X4's with stock suspension running other than stock tires sizes. 285, 305, 315, 325, 35", 37", whatever. Aftermarket wheels are fine too.

I know you can search and find some pics, the reason for this thread is to lump them all together for comparison and to make searching easier. Post a little info with your pics... size, brand, likes and dislikes, rubbing issue and so on.
Link threads too. Know of a good thread about a specific size... link it.

You do realize that 285, 305 , 315 etc are all tire widths, while 35 and 37 are diameters.....

Here's the front of mine with the Nitto Dura Grapplers in 285/75R-17. It's a 34" tire.

Ripping R...Lost lake is right. 315 is the measurement across the width of the tire in milimeters. The 70 is the aspect ratio...meaning the sidewall height is 70% of the width. and the 17 is the wheel diam.

Here is some reading on the subject. http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/infoSidewall.do

Did you understand the question? Thought so.
I really don't think it's necessary to put all of the aspect ratio's in there. I'm pretty sure folks get the idea.

Really? How's that working out for you? Driving in a straight line and no bumps? Looks cool.

Nah, it does pretty good. I get about 3/4 of the turn radius. If I am going down hill hard into a turn, it will rub, but I took it through a pretty bad bog hole the other day, no problems.

285 75 17. No rubbing. Toyo Open Country AT. Everything you could want in a tire with the exception of tread life.
