Yeah I like the 17's just because of the more aggressive tire...

So I bought 'em. Look like 4 1/2" backspacing and -12 offset. Those suckers should stick out nice right??? How big of a tire can I put on those bad boys?

Check out Khumos, had their Venture AT tire and they were very well priced and lasted awhile.

I found something. I think I'm going to have to go cheaper than 35's. I can get a 275/70/17 for next to nothin. Will that fit? Or is it too narrow? Thanks in advance, these damn tire sizes get me everytime.
