They actualy don't look bad at night, you can see the turn signals, brake and back up lights pretty good.
Maybe an upgrade to LED bulbs is another mod I'll have to do.

Too big is what size..
LT285/75/R16, wishingI would have went smaller diameter than stock not larger. They don't spread out on the rim enough because they are on the lower end of acceptable for the tire size.
I need some 9.5"-10" wide rims for them to flatten out better. When I lay rubber it gets up on the center of the thread and it looks like someone with a compact car laid the tire marks down.
I guess rims are next or go to a different tire, may have to burn these off or sell them.
