Re: Wheel and tire idea. What do you think?

I don't like the huge wheels either, but it depends on the tire height also. I want to run some fairly tall tires, 29 to 30 tall, so we will likely use a 16 or 17 inch rim so there isn't so much heavy rubber around the outside, should handle a little better too, but if you use a 27 or 28 tall tire, I think the 15 inchers would be good, I just dont like the "rubber band" look, but think a "little" bigger wheel is ok depending on the tire height.
