Default What size are these tires?

I really like the look of that size tire on this JK. Do any of you know the type and brand? They look like BFG M/Ts but I can't quite figure out the size and to my eye they look bigger than stock. Thanks.

If you scale the picture...

I measured the rim @ .9375 and the tire @ 1.750, we know they are 17" rims.

Cross multiply (1.750*17)/ .9375 = 31.7333

I am gonna say they are 285/70/17 or 32's

.9375 rim in picture------- = -------- 17 actual rim size
____________________ = _______________________
_
1.750 tire in picture------ = --------- X (actual tire size

is what the actual equation looks like. As long as you have 3 known values just solve for X... works everytime
