Default 305/70/16 on factory wheels?

I know there are a million posts about wheels and tire sizes, and sorry for starting another, but I just came accross a smoking deal on some 305/70/16's (they are called runway mt's) and was wondering if anyone runs this size on a stock wheel and has a pic I could see. I am not a fan of the "muffintop" look when a tire is too wide for a wheel and want to make sure these will look ok before I grab them.

Actually have been doing a little more searching on tires, and thinking I am going to go with a different brand, The runways get pretty ****ty reviews.... although at $100 a tire, one shouldn't expect great things

I was going to say something about the brand. But for the first time EVER I bit my tongue! You might wat to stick with a better brand that gets some decent reviews and spend a little more for piece of mind,better ride and longer tread life.

Plenty of tire discussions on here with reviews, long term reports and such.

I'm not promoting any of these brands/models but 1 or 2 are my favorites!
ALL of these tires come in a 305/70R16.

Goodyear Duratrac
Mickey Thompson Baja MTZ
Cooper Discoverer STT
Hankook Dynapro MT RTO3
Toyo Open Country M/T
Dick Cepek Crusher
PRO-COMP XTERRAIN
Mickey Thompson Baja ATZ
Nitto Mud Grapler
BF Goodrich T/A KM2
Dick Cepek Mud Country
Fierce Attitude M/T
Nokian Vatiiva M/T
Firestone Destination M/T
Yokohama Geolandar M/T+
Kumho Road Venture MT KL71
Cooper Discover ST
Goodyear Wrangler MTR w/Kevlar

I know its a bit of a drive but I am located in the Finger Lakes and if there is anything you are intrested in the Cooper, BFGoodrich, Maxxis, General, Firestone, Bridgestone, Nokian, or Toyo lines let me know and I will do my best on pricing.
