Beefy..... Finally put my MT Drag Radials on. 295/45-17 and boy do they fit snug in the wheel well.
I know the cars dirty so I don't want to hear about it.
The only problem I have is that after installing them my ABS and traction control lights come on. Is this because of the larger diameter tire? Also my speedo is off about 5-6 MPH.

ABS doesn't work correctly when the front and rear tires are different heights, but yours look the same. Maybe you unplugged one of the ABS sensors? The taller tires also affect the calibration of the speedo

The tires are different diameters so I am sure thats what caused it. Checked both speed sensor plugs.
I knew my speedo would be off but didn't think by that much. Either way they are and inch taller than my 295/35-18's.
Thanks for the input on the abs/traction control.
