Default Best Fit Wheels Durango 08

Hi everyone. I just got my 08 Durango, and I wanna get it look good. First of all, ive stating on getting new wheels, maybe 22' inch or 24' inch, but the problem is this. What measure of Wheel will fit better, I say better in terms that wont hit the inside of the wheel. So what will fit better a 22' inch rim or a 24' inch rim ?

Thanx

Al.

22's fit better IMO, do you plan on lowering your D or go with stock ride hight?
Mine is lowered 2"/3" and I have slight rubbing in the front with 305/40/22 tires.

With 24's you will suffer major acceleration and braking losses do to the weight of the wheels and tires.
It is for sure more show than go!

If you want a sporty look I would go with 22's if you more in the off-road nasty boy look I would do 20's.
Best looking wheel on the Durango is the SRT10 wheel with 305/40/22 tires.

You can find them oneBay for around 1800$ including tires.

Are you sure? ... because a 22 inch rim with a 305/40 R22rubberhas a diameter of 31.50 inch more less, and the Stock wheels witha265/65 R17 rubber has 30 inch of diameter, that means that the difference between the two wheels are nottoo much, just a 1.5 inch difference, so if I loose some gas milage it wont be much.
