Default 275/60/17 Pics

Anybody running them on OEM 17x7.5 GM rims and have pics? Post what ya got, I need some better tires and these look like the only size I can get a good performance oriented tire in and still retain a decent amount of sidewall on a factory rim with a stock height truck.....

You happen to have the overall mounted tire height of your setup? Looks good BTW...

Ya, they say these are supposed to be like just over 30, but there not. Both set of Toyo's I've had are about 1" shorter then what they "spec" at when mounted.
