rim size?
It's time to start looking for rims and I would like to know from some with prior experience what sizes work well. I am planing on a 4/6 drop and need to know mainly about backspacing, thinking about 17 or 18" and will be looking for a good used set so I would like to know what to look for...thanks for any help

Re: rim size?
It's really all personal preference, but I will tell you that there's not alot of tire choices for 17" rims anymore, well, to fit a truck at least. Your best bet is to go ahead and go with 18's. I suggest an 18x8/18x10 combo. If you're looking to buy used, though, you could probably find some prettty good deals on 17's

Re: rim size?
20's are almost the cheapest now.
