Default Please help with tire size

Right now I have the 255/70-R16 w/ stock aluminum rims. I have heard that the Toyo Proxes STs have good traction. I'm not sure if I'm going to keep the stock rims and go with the Proxes 275/60-R16 or get some 18x8.5 rims and get the Proxes 255/55-R18.

Does anybody know the overall dia. of these 3 tires (inches)? I'll be putting 4.10s in soon and I'm trying not to mess up the ratios too much. Thanks in advance!

Head on over to http://www.toyo.com and view the Proxes S/T's. From there you can get the tech data the tires.

255/70-R16 Diameter = 30.0551 in.

275/60-R16 Diameter = 28.9921 in.

255/55-R18 Diameter = 29.0433 in.

Hope this help.
