Default LARGEST Size Tire With 17X8 RIMS.........

I've tried the search for a couple of days, and I'm a little "blonde" when it comes to these conversion charts.......

My question:

What's the largest size tire I can put on my stock 2004 XLT 2 wheel drive with 17X8 aftermarket rims ?

I don't really want to get into lifts, or leveling or any of that other cool stuff, I plan to get a 2010 F150 later this year but want some good looking off/on road tires, like maybe:

Firestone Destination A/T's
Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor or
Michelin LTX A/T2's

An answer to my "size" question would be appreciated, as well as your thoughts on my tire selections.

Probably a 265x70x17 which is close to 32 inches tall. I'm running 315x70's on a 17x8 wheel but I have a leveled 4x4. Check out the Toyo,Nitto and BFG AT's those would look great on your truck.

The NITTO's and TOYO's do look great......

They are something to consider.......
