Please Help Wheels.

You really cant go wrong.Go with the 1st ones. You never know you might want to change it up. I believe they will hold more value. Might be wrong, but I can see the logo and they make nice rims.

Go with your gut feelings.. I think finding the right tire is going to be the hardest... Because you can have the nicest most expensive rims, but with the wrong tire it can look like crap.. And make the whip look ugly...

Like me for instincts, I needed a tires.. I knew I wasn't going to cheap, just had to find the best price for stock size tire. So I went with the new BFG rugged terrains T/A... I was going to put them on the stock rims until I saw them, then I knew I had to find sum kind of rims that looked ok and cheap in price.. I got a nice package deal so I grab the motto's as you can see in the pic..can't wait to see what you decide...

I'd say the second ones but do a 22" wheel since you have the NNBS--that is a lot of wheelwell to hide

I'm on my PC now. The 6 spoke does have alot of lip. But I still say the 1st rim.

I love you guys thanks for all the input. Please keep it coming.

The lip on the first one is going to make them look even smaller. So, on that alone, I'd say no to them. That, and I don't like a 6-spoke wheel because of the symmetry (when the front and rear wheels aren't "aligned" with one another, it looks off to me -- a problem that you don't have with 7-spoke wheels, or with multi-spoke wheels).

I say second one but of course with a 22" if available.

Personally I don't care for either. As someone else said, they look too "240SX" for my liking.
And as everyone else has said - go 22". Just like women with fake *******, they always wished they went one size bigger. Same goes for rims.

I'd go for the Enkeis. I currently have the Enkei RT6 20s and they look like 18s on the NNBS as mentioned in previous posts. I've had these for 2 years now and I'm gonna get some 22s soon.

@ ibizzy Thanks for all your input.

@ RoHoe09 I like that look, despite it looking "small" like you guys are saying. You are the reason I started looking at Enkeis in the first place.


My heart says 22's but my mind says 20's. I was set on TBSSs for a long time, but....
I drive about 30,000 miles + a year, and with the gas doing what its doing........... and also thinking about wear in suspension in a commercial vehicle.

I am pulling about 18-20 MPG right now. At 65 MPH my tach shows right at 1500. I was in a loaner with LTZ 20's and at 60 MPH it shows 1500. So a difference of 5 MPH. Both trucks Suburbans with 2WD setup. Picture to prove it.

I figure it is a little worse with 22s ???

I understand the whole thing about overall diameter is what affects MPG and speedo and all, but I am also thinking about the rotational mass concept.

Tahoe/Suburban 17s like the ones Jacob (forget his screen name) used to have and I currently have weigh on mine exactly 63 lbs. on my scale.

The Enkeis on tire rack show 34.7 lbs. plus I figure 42 lbs. for the tire so total about 77 pounds. 77-64= 14 pounds per wheel. According to some other blogs about the topic; you figure rotational mass at 1.6 pounds vs. static weight. so....

14x1.6= 22.4 per wheels/tire

times x 4 = 89.6 pounds of weight added just by swapping wheels and tires. Gets worse for 22s 24s etc. hence why I am shying away from them.

Only see one.
