    I aint even into any rims over 17" but that guy at least has enough sidewall on his tires to keep them as 'working wheels'. Even to my old school trained eye they look pretty ok.

    I think 16 inch wheels are perfectly sized. Some 17s and 18s look pretty good, just not really my style.

    I don't like anything over 18s, unless its those wheels on the XSP Tacomas. Those are just plain sexy.

    Wheels and tires are like boobs.

    I like the look of more tire. Im considering 15s with 33x10.5 at some point. However..... doest more tire and less tire make your handling wallowly and less percise?

    i think there is a perfect in between cause a 35 on a 15 in rim looks odd and a 33 on a 17 is to much rim i think 33 on 15 in rim is perfect and 35 on 17 in rim
