It will not fit worth a damn. Way too wide and to short of a sidewall. You will not be putting much rubber on the road.

How wide are the stock 17s? I thought they were 6.5 like the 16s. Apparently I was wrong. They seem to fit much better then I expected.

they wear pretty good in the center, I kept my pressure down even when on the street. They aren't optimal but they do fit and work pretty good. The front tires were the stock ameritracs that came on these trucks, I think a 245/70 idk cant remember the number.
