in my opinion 17inch rims are the best size. they arent huge like pimp rims and they arent small like ricer rims. they are just 100% cummins power rims

I have a set of stock 17" 3rd generation alluminum alloys for sale IMO they look great on 2nd get trucks and bolt up without any issues. They have a set of Toyo A/ts 285/70/17s mounted on them as well.

weve been through this in a forum but sized up by tire size, 7 inches is the stock profile of a 17 on 31

there fore, an 18 maintains the stock profile on a 33, a 20 maintain the profile on a 35, and a 22 maintains the stock profile on a 37..when you go too far from the stock profile(over 5 inches or so) the tire will roll over the sides and causing swaying, uneven wear, and an all around bad handling rig
