    Has anyone compared these tires side by side? I have seen the 285/70/17's in person and they look good. But I have 16" stock wheels and I'm wondering if 285/75/16's would look significantly more "balloony" than the 17"s...?

    So I saw some 285/75/16 duratracs on a Dodge full size yesterday. They definitely look a bit more balloony than the 285/70/17's. Hummm.

    Anyone running these on their Taco with stock 16"s wheels?
