Looks like 17" wheels, but could be 16"
10" width
Tire sizes are pretty straight forward if you know what the numbers mean
First number is the width in millimeters, so 254mm = 10 inch width
Number after the "/" is the aspect ratio of the sidewall, as a percentage
So 254/65 would mean the SIDEWALL width of this tire is 65% of 254mm, which is 165mm which is 6.4 inches of sidewall around rim
R = Radial tire
and 17 would be the wheel(rim) size it fits
So 254/65 R17, would be WRONG for that pictured tire, lol
And there are no 254's as far as I know, 255 and 265 are popular
It is a lower profile tire, shorter sidewalls, so 255/45 or 255/50 or 255/55 maybe
In the pictures the sidewalls look to be about 50% of width, your call
From the pictures you choose you seem to want the lower profile, so wheel size matters as that will either lower or lift the ride height of vehicle
So measure your current tires height, or look it up
And decide if you want it lower or higher
Then just do the math, 17" wheel plus 5" sidewall(x 2) = 27" tall tire
10" width

I've decided to go the other direction and put 30" tires on it.
