Help Me decide on tire size for new rims (1 Viewer)

[Roberto]

I recently bought these new 17" x 8" AEV aluminum rims and now trying to decide on what size tires. I really like the tire size on this green FJ build but cannot find the thread after searching for he gave me the size at one time, IIRC it was like a 285 something or other. Anyway, I am running 2.5" OME heavys, Turboed 3B with H55F and 3.70's but switching back to 4.11's. I also like the look of this blue FJ as well.

thanks
Rob

Go big or go home. (Especially with 4.11s and a diesel)

Didn't go through..your box must be full.

If you are going to sell the wheels and tires let me know what you're looking to get for them. I could pick them up since I'm in the DC area every few weeks.

Thanks,
Brian
