Tire/Wheel Picks

Ok, just got the 71 back from body and Paint, need new tires and wheels. Currently I have P255/70/R15's on the truck, too me they look too small, really want to go with something a little wider and taller. I would love some picks if you wouldn't mind sharing, also please include your tire size.
going to get them this weekend and would really like a good idea of what this will look like. Thanks!!

Looks like that might be as wide as I could go on the front without rubbing. THanks for the pic man!

275/60R15 on 15x8 ralleys. If I had to do over I think I would have done a smaller tire in front like a 255/70R15.
