haha, it's so much harder to find some decent tyres for 17" all the ones i seem to find are like £100+ and i need 5 so they're all matching. Having a nightmare.

Mine are 18" off a jeep. Even less choice but cos I've got 2" lift etc I got them in with some trimming of arches etc. I did have 16" black steel modulars. With 16s there loads of choice Bfg AT's are very good think 215/70/16

Im in the same boat, though im halfway through swapping onto winter tyres currently.
Im tempted to keep the 17s for road use then if I want to get dirty, swap over to a set of 16s
As an aside - brilliant forum, with a wealth of info available on search (Ive lost many an hour going through, what tyres, IRD and VCU issues LOL)

I have 2 sets of wheels.

225/65 R17 General Grabber AT on my Evolution rims
and
215/70 R16 Vredestein Wintrac 4 Xtreme on my 16" alloy rims.

I have a 40mm lift and 30mm spacers.

The Grabber AT cost about £111 each fitted.
The Wintrac's were £96 each fitted.
