17" tires

Just curious as to what some of you guys running 17" wheels use as far as tire size and brands on lowered vehicles. Also pics might help

I run Nitto Extreme NT-450's. They are 255/50's, which works out to 27" in diameter. I am real satisfied with their performance. A great tire.

I'm running BFG Comp T/A's, 205/50's in the front and 315/35's in the back. They've done great for me so far.
