Anyone happen to be running these on a stock wheel?

I am considering them bcuz I am going for a more aggressive look, without the all terrain downsides, such as extra noise and loss of MPG.

looking into a 285/75/16 on the stock GMC chromies.

Thanks!

Nope, they are wearing great however im only at 3,000-4,000 miles. I have worked in tire shops for the last 5 years and of the sets of these I see come through they seem to wear good as long as the rotations and alignment are done regularly. I will post some pics tomorrow or the next day the memory card for my camera is in the laptop w/ the wife at school.

I'm not running them on stock wheels, but I have about 25k on mine and they still look great. Ride just like stock and have a better tread wear rating than most anything out there.
