22" (stock) vs. 20" vs. 18" Wheels

I keep coming back and loving your setup. The main differences between ours is my stealth has far less chrome. I probably wont go white lettering, but absolutely loving the gruff that is emotes. Do you happen to have a pic with the tire at full lock?

Now, I am really antsy to get them. LOL! The 18" set up saves me $500, too ($2563 vs. $3087). Sadly, the wheels I want are on backorder.

I am looking at Black Rhinos with a 12 offset. Therefore, they will be very similar to yours.

I like your stance. Also give me a good idea of the look since mine it white with CCD suspension, too.

You are running tires a wee bit thinner, but taller. And you said no rubbing? Even at full lock? I am sometimes at full lock backing into a campsite.

+12’s are a little to much if you run a taller and wider tire. +18’s seem to be the sweet spot.

The tires I am considering are either taller and same width or taller and narrower.

6mm is about a 1/4 inch difference.

Still waiting on my quote back to see the difference with and without a ReadyLift install.

If I can get the full package of lift kit, tires, wheels and install for less than $3000, It is almost a done deal for a winter project, maybe early spring... well, and an anticipated large commission check.

I hope it happens. They look so much better with a bigger tire. But I will say the pics above on a +12 will be rubbing. I’d dump my +12’s if I could find a wheel I like in a +18.

So, do the 22's ride harsh? Even with CCD suspension?

Smaller wheel would likely provide smaller moment of inertia and improve mpg and maybe acceleration. Can't speak to ride quality, as I have only towed with the 20s. I think they provide a decent balance between handling and comfort with proper inflation. But I'm debating moving to load range E to reduce squirm while towing. The other reason I like the 20s is they have enough sidewall to avoid curb rash.
