The only tires I know of in that size are the Maxis Buckshot Mudders and the Goodyear MTR.

Unless they have come out with a new tire, that size isnt avalible for the BFG AT. I would have it if it is. 285/70/17, 305/65/17, and 315/70/17 are the sizes for that certain tire. I saw a 2002 king ranch supercrew with the 315/70/17's and they looked good. If you want 305's go with the 305/65/17's (33x12.5's). But If your dead set on the 305/70/17's (34x12.5's) go with the MT/R's from good year.

After much himmin' and hawin', I settled on the 285/70/17 Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor's. I was the same way, I wanted and still do a set of 305/70/17 Goodyear MT/R's, one day. From what i hear, trimming the valance and raising the torsion bars is needed, not so with the 285's.
