I noticed R_U_FST2 mentioned putting 285/60-16's on his truck. I have a motorsports edition with 255/65-16's and wondered if anyone could tell me if you have any problems with upgrading in size?

Also, has anyone tried a 255/70-15, as it holds the same dimensions as my stockers. Just wondering how they look.

Thanks

I am looking for wider tires for my R/T. BlackCC-RT mentioned BF Comp. T/A 305/45 17" but I couldn't find this size on their homepage. Was the size (17") a mistake?

The best I could find for the R/T wheels are the Falken 275/50 17". Any other recommendations?

I also put larger tires on my Dak. One thing you need to realize is that it changes your speedo. Depending on the size difference in your tires it wont be correct. For example I had the stock tires for a v6 4x2 on my truck. I put on the 4x4 31" tires. It threw my speedo off by 5mph at 50. Kinda sucks when you get pulled over.
