Default Nitto DR's

Anybody running 275-40-17 Nitto DR's on an 11" rim?

The tire spec states they can be installed on a 9-11" rim. I currently have them mounted on my 9.5 rim but may go to 11's.

I wouldn't recommend it. I had 275/50r15 on a 10" rim. These tires run too narrow. It looked bad and I definitely wouldn't feel comfortable stretching them any more, especially with a shorter sidewall.

Moving up to a 315 or 325 would be better IMO.

I definately wouldn't. I wouldn't run anything smaller than their 315 DR on an 11" rim. The 555R's just run too narrow.
