Re: No 18s or 19s??

Thanks for all the feedback. My other car/track toy is a Miata, and I have learned much about the evil of unsprung weight, which tends to be a by-product of going to larger wheels and tires.

I think the 17s look a bit wimpy, but I DO think that 20s and above look a bit too "Hot Wheels" for me (no offense, guys). I'm sure the ride is less compliant with those 20s, and I"m not convinced that lo-pro 20" tires are the way to go for a truck.

A standard "plus 1" treatment would get me to an 18, which would improve the looks and hopefully allow me to find a wheel that's not drastically heavier than the stock 17.
