    I was considering possibly running 255/75/17 but they would be on 8.5 wide wheels. I know thats the max width for that tire but was concerned it might look too ballooned out. Any pics or info would be greatly appreciated.

    Fun tip with running the 255s, You can get BFG MT KM1s for cheap from people who take them off their Wranglers.

    People run 265 wide tires on 7 inch rim, I'm sure you'll be ok with 255 on 8.5
