15's here and lovin it! Tires are cheaper and I can run almost any super swamper even up to 44" tires.
I haven't heard of 15's and lift kit's being troublesome......do we have links to back that rumor up? I see no basis of why they would present a problem vs stock rims.

A lot of 15" rims require trimming of the stock calipers, it completely exempts you from upgrading to larger brakes, (I think the TF kit has a 17" minimum?) and some steering upgrades won't fit without larger rims (Currie tie rod? Flips, maybe?).
And personally, I don't think I would feel very comfortable stopping those 44" swampers on the stock brakes...

Brakes and steering.
