I have 15" wheels. As you can see from the picture that 33's look big because of so much sidewall. This gives you more sidewall flex for climbing over obstacles. The 15's cost less for the same outside diameter tire. I paid 180 dollars for BFG 33's. Over the life of the Jeep this will save me a considerable amount of money. Besides function and savings I also just like the smaller wheel big tire look. Many younger Jeepers really like the bigger wheels. It is a matter of opinion as to which is best. Do make sure your wheels will fit if you go with 15's. Mine are close but I didn't have to grind on anything or make any modifications. My signature tells the details except (fixed the sig) the wheels are 8" wide with 3.75 BS. Hope this helps.



With 3.75 bs it moves the tires out like spacers would.
