i am gonna get a toytec 3" body or suspension lift i dont know yet

i am planning on running either

on 17's
???

or
275/70/16
on 16's???

please give me your advice at what you think would look better

thank you =]

 

if you are going to offroad, generally the more sidewall between rocks and wheels the better. However you should have plenty either way so I would suggest photoshopping it or finding some way to visualize it and figure out your personal preference

 

Well...A 275/70 will be an inch smaller on a 16" rim thana 17" rim-So if size matters-You'll have to account for that.
Dgerm is right-More side wall between tire and surface tends to make the tire more complaint off road and a bit more comfy on road....

I'm going to 16's when I swap my tires out...but like DG said- Find some rims you like and start there....Set some pictures up and what not...It's all about personal style.
