what tire size ya'll runnin on the 17x7.5 stockers

i was wanting to know with the 17 x 7.5 chrome steel wheel i have on my 99 ORP if a 12.50 tire would run "true and correct" on this wheel.......i really like the factory wheel and dont want to spend hundreds of bucks for custom Weld Evo wheels...what im wanting is the equivilant of the 33/ 12.50 x 17 tire on this factory wheel........and of course i have to wait for BFG to come out with that size for the 17' wheel......in the AT/ KO thanx ya'll Pete

just one more question i did not think about........torsion bars....do they have to be "cranked" in order for the 33's to fit and turn up front.........i now have the BFG AT 265's in the 17 of course..but i would like a "beefier" tire.....have about a year left worth or tread on these current AT's.and like i mentioned b-4 im waiting on BFG to come out with the 285 in the AT. i just prefer BFG....thanx again Pete

I spoke with someone from bf goodrich last week and he told me there are no immediate plans for either a 285/70/17 or a 305/70/17 in the all terrian. He did however say a 315/70/17 will soon be released and will be used on the H-2.

the bars do not need to ajusted to fit the 33 12.50 pro comp mudder. these are awsome tires. 4 wheel parts in redondo beach is selling them buy 3 get the 4th free right now I believe, or did that end last month.
