Default Pics of 1500 4x4's with 265 & 285 17" tires.
I am trying to decide now between 17" tires. Either 265 or 285. I am leaving the truck stock height.

Can you guys post pics of both tires sizes on stock height 4x4 1500's?

Thanks

for a stock truck i would go with the 285. i think the 265's look small even on a stock truck.

Since you have the 20's now, the 285 will approximate the 33 inchers you now have.

Go 285! 265's are too small!

Just got the Mastercraft Courser AT's...had 265's upgraded to the 285's, there is a noticeable difference, I got a 2500 so there is not a clearance issue. The Power Wagons come stock with 285's from the factory, I knew thats what size I wanted when I went to the tire store...
