I am looking at getting some new tires soon. I have 245/70/16 tires that are right at 29.5 inches tall.....to tall in my opinion for a lowerd truck. I am wanting to get some 255/55/16 general grabber UHP's they are 27 inches tall. Do you guys think my truck will look goofy with tires that much smaller? Currently running a 2/4 drop with helper bags in the rear

it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
I think its the slam bags. They were already on the truck when I got it.

i think a 255/65 or similar size would look good. its .5" shorter but a little wider. do you know how wide your wheels are? probably 8" or 8.5" the tires on my 20's were 29.75" tall and never rubbed i thinks it really a personal prefrence on how short of a tire you'll like on it. with more drop a 27" tire probably wouldnt look bad. just my opinion. gary
