    Im Commited to the Trail Grapplers...I just like the look out of all the choices. My choices are in the poll and are as follows.

    #1 Trail Grappler 255/75/17 32.17 Diameter with Method Standard 17" wheels

    #2 Trail Grappler 275/70/18 33.62 Diameter with Gear Alloy 726MB

    Icon/All Pro.....chopped for 35's
    18s are weak.....a 16 will ride smoother on the street! I vote #1 but look into 265s!

    The 265 is 31.97 in diameter which is smaller than 255... I like the 255 because its tall but without the trimming. I like 285 as well but to much trimming...

    Please get the 17" Methods

    Please do not get the 18" other things

    This is my opinion

    Also, I really like the 255s It's a true 32 also, everyone running 265/75-16 claiming to have a 32 are rounding up :thumbsup:

    does turning tires to black wall out count? How bout added snug top rebel.
    I like the flat black #1's, especially with MGM, but if you kept all your chrome emblems and bumper, the #2 rims would look better.IMO
