I have heard great results from that size. Yes, I have snowy roads, and yes it slightly narrower (1/2"), but again I think they'll fit the vehicle perfectly. The size is lighter, is a 32" tire, and from what I have read makes the vehicle perform well under most circumstances. It has been a long debate between these and 275's. I have come to the conclusion that the lighter and narrow tire will perform well for my intended purposes.
I was contemplating 275/70/17 Wildpeaks at 57 lbs. or 255/75/17 at 39 lbs. a tire. Both 32"s
The 255's with a light wheel will probably make the car perform better in most situations save for deep mud or rock crawling. Also may improve city MPG.
For fun, try to convince me otherwise... I am open minded.
