In a 35 sometimes its cheeper to go with 17's than 15's. The tire shop should give you estmates for both tire/wheel combos. Some wheels aren't even available in a 15" with a 5-5 bolt pattern.
I'll check that, thanks

I already bought the zone off road 3'' lift kit

There is no possible way on earth that a 17" wheel and tire combo, when bought brand new from a wheel and tire retailer, will ever be cheaper than the exact same 15" setup. No way, no how, not ever, unless you find it on a ridiculous clearance/close-out sale.

We've never met but I think it's finally the right time I tell you that I am your long lost other brother.
