I have a set of 285/70R17s sitting at the tire shop waiting to be installed, I'll get them on and post some pics as well. They are going on my Mega which has stock ride height and wheels.

They are the Hankook RF10's, or Dynapro ATM's. I haven't read much about them on here but supposedly they are like the Toyo AT's but with better wet and ice/snow performance because of the siping. Seen some pretty good reviews on them around the web.

just realize that the tire size calculator is just a ballpark... every manufacturer's tires run different sizes at a given official size... why? I guess to confuse people... kinda how shoes run different in a given size.

your best bet is to go to the manufacturer's website and get the specs on the particular tire you're looking at

Tire size calculator
The "75" outweighs the "70" by 14#.
