275/70/18 pictures?

Anyone running 275/70/18 on factory FX4 wheels and a leveling kit have a picture they can post up so I can get an idea of how they will look?
Trying to decide between 33 and 35 inche tires and can't seem to find this size posted on a stock wheel.

I tow a 22' camper and a Jeep and I don't want to kill the truck with the 35's but I love the looks of how they fill out the wheel wells. I know people say to get the 305/65/18 bfg for that in between size, but the price is absolutely rediculess.

I just posted some new pic's of my setup. I just put on 275/70/18 BFG's. I have a 2006 King Ranch. I really like the looks of them. I also have a 2" AS level kit.

tcf205, I don't want to come off as an a** but those calculaters are a joke to how big tires actually are. For an example the 295/70/17 nitto terra grapplers that I just took off my truck according to those calculators are 33.25" tall, on my truck they only measured 32.5" I,d be willing to bet that the tires on your own truck don't measure what they are suppose to be. Don't get me wrong some tires are very close to what those calculations are but most are not. Examples are Super Swampers are very close but BFGs have been known for years to measure on the small side to what they are suppose to be.

Again I am not trying to flame here I am only stating facts and I am trying to find the right tire for my needs. Lets face it not all of us have the funings to try different size tires to find the ones we like the best, thats why we are here and ask questions and try to answer them the best we can.

why not meet in the middle and get the 295/70-18 you can find this size with the Terra and Trail Grappler by Nitto. They measure out to about 34.2 x 11.6 which is about right in the middle. I got them for my fx4 im putting them on my stock wheels with 2 1/2 level kit should look real nice. I will post pics next week once they are on.

I have been looking at them for sure. The 295/70/18 trail grappler is one of the main tires I have been looking at.

They measure what they are suppose to, maybe 1/4" less depending on where and how you measure from. I don't remember exactly but its jsut over 33.

Hope that helps? I am glad I got them, I am really happy the way they make the truck look. So much better than the stock ones.

Thanks for the replys and pictures, I do believe you guys have made my mind up for me. It looks like the 275s are a good up grade without pushing the 35" envelope and killing the performance of the truck. Again thanks for the replys and the trucks look good!!!!!

Yeah they are the same width and just 5% taller sidewall than stock but they really do look a good deal bigger to me.....I think they look really good, and I am really partial to the bigger the better if it fits deal
