Re: ? about 17 in tires
You lost me. Are you wanting pics of 275/60/15's or a what they are equivalent to 17's or do you want pics of 275/60/17's.
275/50/17's are the approximately the same size as 275/60/15's, like 27.8 vs 27.9" respectively.

Re: ? about 17 in tires
86 GMG,
I will try to get a picture of the truck with the wheels mounted tonight .My truck isnt lowered or anything for you to compare to . I paid more for the wheels than I will sell the whole package for . $800 for tires, wheels, and lugs . Wheels were around $800 , lugs were about $75 since they are specific to the wheels , The tires I already had . The wheels are mounted on the truck but I have never driven the truck with them . The wheels are basically brand new . Tiers are BF Goodrich . Frank |

Re: ? about 17 in tires
Here's an old pic of my '71 blazer. It's dropped 4.5/6 and has 17x8 and 17x9.5 wheels with 255/50-17's on front and 275/50-17's on the rear. I hope this helps.

Re: ? about 17 in tires
Rear tires are 275/60/17's
Beware though, that is a 31 inch tall tire.

Re: ? about 17 in tires
Dont' have any pics, but my old truck had 8s in the front and 9.5 on the rear. Sneakers were BFG Scorchers 245/55 and 255/55 IIRC. Has an awesome stance, looks really good, and the rear really filled nice, tucked in with no clearance issues. Front was a tad small for my taste, but I couldn't find anything close.
