Was just wondering why people go with a certain size rim? Is it because 15's are cheaper tires? 17's have better road handling? This might be a dumb question but you never know

 

I went with 17's so if I want to go bigger than 35" I can. You cant do that with 16" rims. Plus I like the balanced look of sidewall vs wheel.

 

I like the 17's personally. Not just for looks, but more tire options.

 

x2

Most people do 15's cause they can save a few bucks on tires. Just doesn't look right to me though, a lot of rubber.

 

I went with 15's because it looks better with 33'' tires (I drive a 2 door DD and don't want 35's) and saved a few hundred on tire costs. I'm happy with my choice FWIW.

 

Same here. I saved myself over $500 on a set of tires.

 

im just old school i like 15x10" that stick out. i didnt find any 17x10 with 4" or less back spacing.

 

The more rubber, the more traction. I personally like 16's as my air down footprint is wider -allows the tires to 'hug' the terrain a little more than if I had larger wheels.

There are less options for 16's and 15's on 37's, but they're still out there... BFG, Mickey Thompson, Dick Cepek, etc...

Here's mine doing some work.

 

Are those PC 7031?? If so I got the same wheels in 16s also. I also like them I have 315/75R16 KM2 and am thinking about going to those 345/75R16 KM2s

 

Here's mine...after doin some work lol!!
