You can find 45, 50 and 55 profile tires in 17" diameters, but you have to look at the truck applications to find them, and they are going to be around 30-32 inches tall

275/50-17 is about 28". That is same as 275/60-15.
Current Vehicles:
Plymouth PPR Cuda 1970 489 cid
Plymouth GTX 1970 RS23V0E


Sorry my bad english...I'm just an european...

1st pic - 275/40R17 these are about 25.5" tall

2nd pic - 305/45R17 these are 28" tall, but they don't make this size tire anymore....once I wear these out I will probably go to a 275/60R17 (stock older ford lightning truck size) and a different gear.

specs on my setup is in the wheel and tires thread
