My Rubicon has a 2.5" lift and I'm currently running 255/75R17 Nitto Trail Grapplers, but I'm seriously considering changing to a 285/75R17. If anyone else is running this same setup please post a pic. Any pro and con opinions appreciated as well.

This is with the 255's...

285/75/17s are a great tire size- functionality wise. Hopefully, I'll give ya picture or two soon. Need to sell my 255/80s first.

In adding, one of thee only shortcomings is you'll be unable to post in the SHOW YOUR 35s thread.

I'm going to 285/75-17 BFG KM2s in a couple of weeks, I'll take some pics for you if you are still interested then.

Edit: mines a 2-door, but you will get an idea
