Default Got my new tires

Going to have them mounted in the morning. Man they look big compared to the stockers... I guess I didnt expect 275/65s to be that much larger than the 275/55s...

I can here the gas sucking out of the tank now.

Lets see some pics installed. I got the Toyo Open Country A/T II Xtreme in the 285/55/r20. I love the tire. I have in on my stock platinum 20's and they look great. They ride really good for a 10 ply.

I was suprised at how soft and light they felt loading and unloading them in the truck. A couple of weeks ago I had some 35 x 12.50s mounted on my Bronco and they were like chucks of lead...

Here they are mounted. I drove about a total of one mile on them so I really do not have a first impression other than they look good. They appeared to be smooth during that one mile drive

Sorry... the pic is terrible... I will take more when if the sun ever comes out again and I can get it cleaned up.

FYI... this is bone stock... no lift / level or anything...

Pics please. I am thinking of mounting the same tires on my stock clad wheels and wondering what that looks like.
