Anyone running 275/70/18's

I will be in the market for new tires sometime next year, since my truck will be going into storage because I don't drive it in the winter. Right now I am running 325/60/18's on 18X9 wheels with 5.5" of BS and my truck has a 2.5" AS leveling kit. I was thinking about going with either a Toyo M/T or Cooper STT 275/70/18, they are just slightly larger (about .4") but 2.5" narrower than the tires I currently have.

So is anyone running the a 275/70/18 on 18X9 wheels and a leveling kit?? If so do you have any pictures? Any input on my possible tire options?

Thanks guys!

I just installed 285/65-18 nitto terra grappler on my really looks good. that size is equalivelant to a 33" tire. But hey you truck looks good as it sits as well.

Thanks guys! I am so use to seeing my wide 325's that I wanted to make sure that 275's wouldn't look too narrow. Now I just have to wait and see what tires I can find the best deal on...

BFF at on stock rims with level. You will probably get a little better gas dropping to that size.

275/70/18 Cooper ST Maxx on my 2012 with 2" level. Pics in my album. Love the look, and since they're lighter than the 295/70/18 I had on the 2005 truck, I didn't notice any real loss of oomph or MPG.

I ran 275/70/18 BFG AT's before trading up to 33x12.5r20s. If I could do it all over, would have stayed with the BFG on factory FX4 wheels.

I have BFGs 275/70/18 with a level. I haven't ever tried generals, but I can't rave enough about these BFGs. Great tire. If it's good enough for the Raptor, it's good enough for me.
