I would like to add in, how much towing are you going to be doing?

If you are going to be doing any towing, I would recommend you stay with the 17's. Dodge claims higher capacities with the 17's.

Id say stick with 17's, but thats just because I like the look of a bigger sidewall. But thats only with 33's i guess, 35's on 20's look awesome. But its your call, which bf's and coopers were you looking at?

For the light towing you're doing, you'll be fine with 20's or 17's. My personal opinion is that 33"+ tires look better on 17's.

I would go with 17's too. Tires will be cheaper with 17's also. With towing light loads, 20's will be fine. I typically dont like the 20's on trucks unless they are slammed, or lifted 12".
