Are those P rated? The sidewall and tread doesn't look very aggressive at all.

You can view the sizing here. They can be LT or P in that size.

Doh. I copied the wrong link. Here is the correct one.

285/70/17 can be a P or an LT in that size.

If you want your RPMs, speed, gas mileage, and maintenance minder to reflect more accurately then you could reflash. But no, you don't need to do it.
