My 285/70/17 Maxxis Bighorns were on the shelf when I bought them for $390 fitted and blanced on my factory rims!

Very happy with them.

Matt.

For the Stock 17" Rims. 285/70 R17 are the size to go for.
They are 33" but if depending on the make they are 32.25 to 32.75.

I have BFG KM2's. They have done 30,000 Km and still are good about 45% tread.

They are also quiet on road compared to other makes of tyres etc

Should be able to get some Mickey T's, they were one of the few available when I got mine a month or so ago. I ended up with some Maxxis Bighorns from Bob Jane. They said there were about 30 left at that time, & I took 5...

They Bighorns were ~$340ea, while the MT were around the $425-$455 mark.
