So I bought a new ram after selling my 94. I got a 01 ram 1500 with a 3 inch skykacker. The tires on it are a 315 70 r17 they are to big. I want to go to a 285 70 r 17 but I'm afraid if they are to small and would look 8 funny. What are you guys running for a tires ?

If 315/70R17 is too big and you think 285/70R17 will be too small, why not go with 285/75R17?
