    Going to order these wheels before the 75$ rebate expires. Can you guys tell me if I should get 8 or 9 inch. I'm planning on 5100 @ 1.75 and Trail Grappler
    265/70/17

    Thanks Pods!

    If you are talking about width, get the 17x8s.

    17x9s are too wide for your tire.

    I was looking at the 7005 also at the local 4X4 shop, nice wheels. :thumbsup: and 265/70/17 would fit just right.

    Satoshi'd grill. blacked out badges. aftermarket sound system. De-chromed and color matched. OME 885s + Dakars with 3rd leaf removed. LR UCAs. Scs stealth 6 with 285 duratracs. BAMF sliders
    265/65 would be about 30.5" which is stock, 265/70 is close to 32", both sizes you would still wanna go with an 8" wheel
