Pictures Of My 285/70/17 Nitto Trails

I had some people asking for some pictures of my new tires I put on so here they are. They measured a good 3/4-1" taller than my BFG's and are a good bit wider. No rubbing... Not even close actually.

looks great, I liked the BFG's you had before too.

Yeah I liked the BFG's, but I had a guy at work that wanted to buy them. So for $300 I was able to sell him my BFG's and get a brand new set of tires. Couldn't pass on the deal.

Indeed. Waiting till its not 115-120 degrees outside to wash it up. Plus I got my GMC emblem on the way (thanks to BMG09) that I'm waiting to paint and put on as well.

Those are nice looking tires, I am also looking at getting some Nitto Trail Grapplers, how are they for road noise? and have you noticed they throw a lot of rocks my new rims are -12 offset so there going to stick out a bit and don't really want to cover my truck with stone chips even though the only gravel I see is in the driveway..

mine are quiet for a mud tire. there is a hum but nothing you cant talk over. they sling some rocks like a champ. i run a lot of gravel and am grateful i have mud flaps.

Ha oh really well good thing I have mudflaps, it may not be good having them stick out past the fender by 1.5" I will just have to keep her out of the gravel

They have a little hum... Not too bad at all though like stated. Our drive to the shop is gravel and they don't sling them too bad for me. I'm also easing up it pretty slow though.

I think that looks sweet! I have been torn between 285/75/17 or 285/70/17 tires for my stock rims and seeing your truck has sealed the deal for me. I'm leaning towards a 2 1/2" leveling kit from autospring, 2 1/2" spacers for the front and 2 1/2" blocks for the rear, should look pretty much identical to yours. Hoping if my figures are right after the kits installed I should only have about a 1/4-1/2" rake.

Great looking tire! They should work well in the rough stuff. I had a similar tire from Firestone. The started out reasonable on the noise and as the tire wore, they got louder until they were too much for me. I like an aggressive tire for the offroading, but I'm not going to get tires that aggressive again. I just don't spend that much time in the dirt to warrant a tire like that.
