275's on Stock Rims - Anyone have Pics?? I need to replace one of my rear tires so I was looking to maybe to get two 275/40/18's put on the back and leave the fronts at 245/45/18. However, I'm little leery to do so considering it might not look that good with somewhat of a "bulge" on the rears due to the rims being all the 8.5 same. I want it to look beefier in the back, but not at the expense of looking awkward or corny.
Does any have a good picture of a 275 on the stock rim? TIA!

I have Goodyear GSD-3's 275/40/18's on the rear, 245's up front. They run wide, more like a 285 which I like the beefier look. No issues but I'm not lowered either.

Thanks for the pictures! Your ride looks nice! I went ahead and ordered some Hankook Evo's (275/40/18) today. The local Discount Tire price matched onlinetires.com's price so I couldn't pass it up. Can't wait till they come in.

Bummer... Only applies to purchases of 4. I only bought 2 rears. Oh well, still happy Discount price matched onlinetires.com. Saved my $50 there, I guess.

Got my new tires put on. I like it! Only problem is, now one of the rears registers 5lbs less on the TPS (34/34/34/29) than the others, even though they're all actually the same 34lbs of pressure when I check manually. I guess I'm going to swing by there tomorrow and have them reset/recalibrate it, but is there a way to do this through the DIC?
