What about the TrXus Mud Terrains? How do those last?

Guys, Im starting to secound guess myself about those wheels. I LOVE the design but I don't like the fact that they're only 8.5" wide. Im not sure if I should really aim for a 20x9 wheel. What do you guys think?

I was looking at these.

It seems like everytime I second guess myself, the second was the wrong one. 1/2" isn't going to make a differance, IMO. But if I had to chose from the new wheels I would pick #1.

Im just worried about tire fitment issues down the road. I don't want to be too limited in tire choices. But, between the original wheel and the 1st one of those three, which do you like more?

I would still go with the Neeper Vandels. Those are some sick wheels!! As for fitment issues, I think that every tire that I have had on my work truck has be "too wide for the rims" since I am running 33X12.5' on a a 8" rim, and actualy has a 13.5 wide tire on them for a while. I just ran lower air pressure since to compensate for it, and I never had any issues.

Well, if you check Procomps website they say you can run a 13.50 with a 8" wide rim.

Then why would you have tire fitment issues with a 8.5" rim? Or am I missing something here?

I could fit a 13.50 but not so sure about anything bigger. Plus, I've heard otherwise about the tire fitment but if Procomp feels strong enough about it to post it on their website, it must be correct. Liability would be killer.
