Default 255/70R15 tires on stock alloy wheels

I need new tires and just wondering if anyone has replaced the 235/75R15 tires on their truck with the 255/70R15 tires. If so, I would like to see picture(s). I do not want to buy new wheels, just want wider tires.
Thanks

You'll have no problem fitting those tires on your stock wheels. As a general rule of thumb, you can go with about a 4 inch wider tire than your rim. A 255 is 10 inches wide, and your rim is probably 7, so you're good to go.
