The web site sas 275 70 17 is as big as they make. They get excellent ratings and I have been looking at them as well. I think they are 31 1/2" in height.

I am just trying to find out how wide the auctual tread pattern is.

 

Here's mine, on my 2000 4x4:

 

Hey blue how wide is the tread pattern on the tires.

 

I dunno exactly, they look bigger than the Toyo's and similar in size look to the BFG's, they are the 285/70/17 that I have. Some website should have exact measurements. They'll fit your truck no prob. I measured the tread at 9.25" that actually touches the road. Do a bit of a search because I know I started a thread on BFG vs Toyo or pics of 285's and some guy had these tires on his 05 FX4.

 

This is good news! I wanted 285's, so what is the actual height on yours?

 

Actual height of the tire is about 32" give or take an 1/8", I have used them a bit and finding a true point is kinda ho hum. This is with around 38 psi. These tires are very nice (Borat) and handle great for what I'm looking for. They are a nice rival to Toyo, Nitto, and BFG to name some notables. Granted I would purchase either, BFG's moreso because they look bigger than do the Toyo's/ Nitto's, but really you can't loose, size would be a larger factor unless you are looking for something specific in a tire. My advice to anyone: If you want bigger without touching anything else, go 285's, they look right on these trucks, even a 295. As far as the Goodyear's, do it!!!! They are a great all around tire, rain, snow, low noise, excellent treadlife, look great and so on!!!!!!!
