I would like to know the answer to this question.My "09 KK has 235/65/17s on it now on stock OEM 17"x7"rims(I don't know what the stock offset is) and stock suspension.I picked up a set of 17"x7"(40 offset) rims, to put some more aggressive tires on for the winter,and the tires that I'm interested in are 245/70/17(this is the smallest 17" they list and are 30.5" high).Would these tires fit without a lift without rubbing?

dont quote me, but that would be the SAME as putting 245/75 on 16" rims and people say those fit.. I am not sure if you can still 'tuck' the tires, but you should be, specially on the stock wheel offset.

I know I had problems with my 255/70/16 (30.1") but they are 10mm wider than the 245 and the offset on my wheels were different.

I would like to say YES, those will fit, as they would be just like putting 245/75/16 on the 16" wheels and from what I have read, that seems like the MAX stock tire size without a lift.

I would say they fit fine.

Thanks guys for the input.I've been reading that the 245/75/16 and 245/70/17 tires are very close in size and that several people are running the 16" on stock rims and no lift.So I should be OK with the 17s.The only thing that has me wondering is that my aftermarket 17x7 rims are 40 offset and I don't know what the offset of the stock 17s are.Does anybody know what the stock 17x7 offset is and if so do you think my aftermarket 17"x7" 40 offset will still be OK with the 245/70/17 tires.Any info will be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance.

the backspacing is the same for 16s and 17s
