Question 17x9 or 16x8???

I am putting a 5 inch Superlift on my 2001 Supercrew including traction bars and can't decide on which tires/rims to buy. I can't decide on the 17x9 Helo Maxx6 with **** Cepek FC-II (33/12.50/17) or the 16x8 Helo Maxx 6 with NItto Terra Grapplers (305/70/16). Which would be the better one to go with in your opinion? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

tire /wheel size

I have a 2001 and like the 17" size rim over the 16"...With the lift and other mods you plan the bigger wheel will look more balanced...just my opinion..sounds like your going to have a cool rig when your done...

good luck with whatever you pick..remember it has to suit you and what you want to used it for...not anyone else...
