15x8 vs. 15x10 wheels w/ 35/12.5/15 rubber
Question here is, what is the asthetic differences? Larger/smaller footprint? What about actual utility differences? I feel like w/ a 15x8 I should be able to air down more and get a bit more flexibility out of the sidewalls of a 12.5-width tire.
Any info or pics showing the two would be great.
Trying to decide if I want to mount 35/12.5/15 KM2's on a 8in. or 10in. wide rim.

I'm currently in the same boat.....ah.....er......Jeep 
Same make and tire size, and I've had a tire shop, and a 4x4 shop both tell me I should go with the 10" rims, but I'm sure I've read numerous times in the past that a narrower rim is the better option.
Anyone else have any feedback?
