For tires, either would look good. I am in the same boat and am considering the Toyos, Trail Grapps and the BFG KM2s. It'll come down to a combination of price and tread life but at least I wont have to decide til this coming winter...

As for rims I like the Fuels in chrome. To be honest, unless you have money to burn, I'd mount up 35x12.5s' on those stock 20s and call it a day! They'll look great for a long time and who knows, one day a rim may come on the market that will blow your mind and you can get those. In the meantime, you'll be putting more than a grand in your pocket and still have a great looking rig.

Good luck!

Okay I narrowed it down to the Ballistic Wizards and the Fuel Octanes both in chrome. Now the question is what offset should I go with. The wizards come in either a 0 or +30 and the Fuels com in a +14 and a +1. If the offset calculator I found is correct, the +30's would only make the front wheel edge stick out .5 inches more than stock and the 0 would be 1.73" more. The +14 is 1.18" more. Plus I guess since Im going to be running a 12.5" tire that will add to how much sticks out also. If the rim is 9" and the tire is 12.5" it should add another 1.5" past the outer wheel edge. I think I'm figuring that out right. Let me know your opinions. Thanks, Mark

If you are going to get a suspension lift, you should check the wheel spec requirements of the lift. They are usually pretty particular. That will more than likely narrow your search for you. If you just level it, the +30 offset would allow largest tire fitment.

I am putting the Rancho 4" kit on it which allows for stock wheels to be used, but there are plenty of guys on here with the same kit that used other wheels too.

I would go with the ballistic wizards in +30 offset. That would look great!

I was leaning toward the 0 offset since I want them to stick out some

For lift, go with the+1 offset.....I did the -18 offset on 10s and a level 2.5" and 33s...if I could lift I'd go to -25

I really like the diamos

Everyone likes the Diamos, the only thing is they only come in 20 x 10's with like a -12 OS and I really dont want my tires sticking out like 3" past the wheel wells. I wish they had 20 x 9's.

Ahhh, in that case I'd do the ballistic wheels, never really liked those mht's

I know how ya feel, shelling out the cash on wheels to find out you really don't like them that's why selection is hard
