Default Widest 315/35/17 DR

I know the nitto is the smallest. I've heard people say the BFG looks like a steam roller! How much wider is it over MT,if they both were on a 17x11 wheel?

The 315 BFGs on my car are wide...I wanted to go with M/T but they were all backordered, now I think the BFG are backordered also.

Summit lists tread width for Nitto NT55R Drag radial as 12.13 and they list MT ET Street radial as 11.7. I know it isn't much, but I have always heard the nitto is small!

That doesn't seem right...MT is definitely wider.
