Wheels: Moto Metal Type950 17x8
Tires: Toyo Open Country - 275/60x17

I got them from Super Buy Tires (http://www.superbuytires.com/wheels/model/Moto+Metal/Type950/?tiresize=275%2F60R17).

Two of the center caps had missing tab locks when they arrived, Ron at Super Buy is sending replacements, at no charge of course. Great customer service, I highly recommend them!

I love the wheels, they look great (IMO)! I'm totally pleased and know I made the right decision. Thanks everyone who has posted pics of their wheels, made this task easier!!

Those are sweeeeet. Like the tires too. Unfortunately I'm spending too much on diesel fuel at the moment to afford them. How noisey are the tires?

Frankly, I didn't notice any difference! One thing I did notice was the ride is a little smoother! I could be fooling myself but I think I'm right. I attribute it to the side wall being a little softer. The max weight for each tire is 2300lbs, so that might explain it. Thats a max weight of 9200lbs, more weight allowance than I'll ever need (I hope :p: )!

looks good. I hope to get a set of rims and tires after the tranny and tts. The wishlist keeps on growing.
