Can someone help me understand tire sizes...
I currently have 245 70R16 on factory wheels.
How much bigger is a 245 70R17??
I understand the rim size is 1" taller but I don't know how that affects the diameter of the tire.
Believe it or not, I want to keep the diameter as close to stock as possible.
Thanks!

I really like the Jester's, I think they would look sweet in chrome, but i just put a set of pro comp 6047's on my truck about a month ago.
