Default What tires w/ stock rims

What tires are you guys running with stock rims? I'm looking for a road tire with minimal sidewall and good traction.

Could anyone post pics and list the size? Also, list any suspension mods to the ride height if at all possible.

Thanks.

I am currently running some Toyo Proxies 275/60/16 on my stock Al wheels. They ride and seem to hold the road better than the Nitto 404 285/50/18 I had before and are about the same overall height so they look good with my 2/4 drop.
