nitto makes a 305/60/17 and a 315/35/17 drag tire
Hooiser also has a wide 17" but you need at least a 12-15" wide tire

TIMSPEED · 10-25-2004, 04:04 AM

I have 17" x 9Â½" with 255/55 17's all around, with a 5/5 drop. I'd run 255/55 up front, with 275/50 17's out back

88Jimmy4x4 · 10-25-2004, 08:58 AM

Hey kevin, mine are 17x9.5's and I run 255/60/17's all around. Your like me and drive these country roads so make sure you dont get a low profile. I could have fit a wider tire in back but I like to rotate mine.
