I realize the 60 series tire will look better since it is wider, but I prefer a taller tire. You need to be careful in keeping the tires near the same width as you currently have, so it is sized correctly to your wheel size.

This is the calculator I like to use. You can compare hieghts as well as widths. Tire size calculator

That is a good calculator for comparing the tire diameter and speedometer accuracy.
I just wanted everyone to know that I have decided to stay with the stock tire size. I have decided on Michelin LTX M/S2 tires in the stock P235/70R17 size. They are considered to be light truck tires and have the XL (extra load) rating of 2200 lbs at 41 psi. They are rated at 70,000 miles. When I get them installed, I'll post my feelings about these tires compared to the Hankooks.
