Just got my new wheels and tires installed this morning. I had located a set of late model 17" gmc alloys and due to some condition and money issues had them powder coated for now. They turned out real nice. I don't drive the truck in the winter so not too concerned about road salt/brine ect.
After shopping and talking to wayyy too many people I took a chance and got a set of Hankook LT265 70/R17's AT M's. They look really good on the truck and they are surprisingly quiet at all speeds. I was ready to spring for a set of Silent Armors and the tire guy talked me out of them and I saved like $350.00 to boot.
I have some slight rubbing on the front when I turn sharp. Will most likely tweek the torsion a bit and see what that does. They sure fill the wheel well better than the 245's.
See my photo bucket link for pics.
