17" wheels and tires
Hey, i'm looking at getting some 17" wheels for my 72 gmc. I am not sure whay size tires to go with. The truck is lowered 3" in the front and 5" in the rear. Thinking of 275 60 17 and 255-60-17's anyone have pictures or suggestions. Thanks Jeff

Re: 17" wheels and tires
I would personally go with 50 series tires in those widths. I have a 3.5/5drop with 255/275 60's (same as 50 series 17's) andthe fendergap is great
