Thanks for the response. Yeah after looking at it again I though they were 15x10 or 15x12's. They look like the Crager Nomads or something similar.

I've got a 6" superlift and some 20" Centerline's with 33's. The wheels are quality, but IMO way too large, and I'd like to step up to 35's. Tires are also very expensive for 20"s. Thinking I may step down to either a 15" or 17" rim for cheaper tires and IMO a better look.

Thanks for the info. :Handshake:

Really? It seems like 35x12.50R15's are a common size and available in most every tire for around $200 per tire, which is less than half of what I would pay per tire for a 35x12.50R20. Are you referring to the availability of wider tires?

There aren't many wide 17" rims available at a decent cost, where as those steel 15x10's they practically give away. As you can see I've still got to paint the rig next, so I'll have plenty of time to think it over. Let me know if you have any other suggestions.

well for me where i live
its hard to find a cheap/decent 35 for a 15 inch rim
all the shops i call and talk to can get it but its pricey and they have to order

i guess here in cali theres not a lot of guys that run smaller rims

everyone has big rims

i found a set of 37/12.5/22's for 147 a tire they were hankooks but still a good tire
ive just found that 16's 17s and even 18s are easier to get and instock and a good price
im gunna get 20s or 22s and wrap them in a 35 soon, **** these 15s IMO

Those are only 265's. Yes, completely :supergay:


I'm somewhat new to this scene, whats your opinion on 12.5" tire on an 8" rim? Perfectly fine? Maybe I'll just paint these things black and get new aggressive tires and call it a day.
