Ok, I test fitted the rims on ones side of my truck to get an idea of which way I should go with tire size, and I'm thinking taller tires front and back.
Current tire sizes:
Front: 245/45/17
Back: 275/50/17

For new tires I'm thinking
Front: 255/50/17
Back: 275/55/17
I forgot to add, the rim sizes are 17x9 for the front, and 17x10 for the back.
Would I be able to run a 255/50/17 on the front?

But finding fronts in that size is rather hard does anyone else know a tire size that would be similiar and easier to find?
