I know that 265 70 17s will fit on a Non Lifted SV, and that the Pro models are running this combo, but would like to see some pics of a SV not lifted/leveled with P265 70r17s.

No rubbing at all and haven't been off pavement in the 20 hours they've been on... but not anticipating any issues at all since the Pro trim uses this size. Speedometer is 2 MPH slow at highway speeds now though based on app store GPS speedometer on iPhone. And the ride is a bit rougher. Totally worth it for the look, the not having to worry about potholes, and the snow traction compared to the factory Michelins.

E. The ride would be smoother with C, but not sure it'd be terribly noticeable. The bigger difference is going from highway tires to a/t's. Still, worth it.

Edit: After two days, decided the E are too rough riding for my taste and need, traded in for C K02s still in 265/70R17s. Way, way, way smoother ride. Night and day difference. The whole thing above where I stated, "not sure it'd be terribly noticeable"... yeah, I was wrong.

Stock height. No rub. KO2, C range.

I ditched my spare for a full size, and discount tire offered to "buy" my spare tire. That helped offset the cost of the new full size wheel and tire I put in it's place.
Just something to consider for that 1 inch difference in tire height if you keep the factory SV spare and ever need to use it.

Edit: to correct from "ride height" to "tire height"
