expedition tire help

i have an 01 xlt 4wd just ordered my 2" spring spacers and looking for tires now. i was looking at the nitro terra grappler i found for $190 a piece and was wondering what size to get. i have stock 17'' and saw people get 305/70/17 tires? whats a good size.

 

That should work fine

 

You may rub with that wide a tire. 285/75R17 should be about the same size and are a little narrower

 

That size gona give me a little lift?

Of course taller tire

 

how much of a difference is 285/75 then 285/70 cause its about a $60 a difference a tire

 

Not too much at least noticable anyway go with the cheaper one.

 

What about 1 1/2 more narrow on the 75 series?

 

The 305/70 tire is 33.8"x12" and the 285/75 is 33.8x11.2, so you save 0.8" in width and keep the same height. 285/70 is 32.7x11.2, so about an inch shorter, you lose 1/2" in height.

 

Great info guys. Now just to find a tire I want
