Pics of 17"GT rims with 255 50

Some of you have mounted larger rubbers (255 or larger?)on stock 17" GT rims(not bullit), please can you pics of your ride with these wheels and tires?
Since breakdown of the forum some pictures are no more visible...

i think you can only hold 255 cause my Fanblades are 18x8.5 and 265 is pushing it

I don't know about the ride quallity because I went directly to Amerca's Tire Co and traded in the stock tires for these. I also have Roush rear springs and I would say that the ride is pretty good unless you are on a very bumpy road.
