17" ORP tires and wheels on 2wd
Hello, I have a question or two about a 2wd with the 17" ORP wheels. What size and brand are everyone running on a stock height truck? My truck is a 99 and came with the 255-70-16s (3.55 non-LS), will I have to get the speedo gear changed to run these wheels? Just got a set and I am trying to figure out which tires to get. Can I run a size bigger than what Ford puts on the 2wd trucks with these wheels with no change to the speedo? Thanks for the help!

I have 275/60/17 on my 2wd sport and using this tire calculator our diameter is pretty close. I don't believe you would have any problems just bolting the 275/60/17 on.
