O, well I take it back.

I think they will look good btw

These are my 285's on stock rims and they looked good with those, another inch and they would look real nice in my opinion.

actually yes, the dirt being on the other tire makes it alittle hard to compare but you can see that the tire is alittle fuller and doesnt skinny up as much, im really looking for some side pics cause when i look at my tires now im just wondering if they are going to get that stretched out look that i hate and i dont want to go and get some new rims and than hate the way they look.......
