My New Wheel/Tire Selection

After much thought and consideration here is what I decided. Thanks everyone that helped, I decided that for as much as I was going to spend on tires for the stock 18s I would rather spend a little bit more and get all new wheels and tires in 17s. Im really happy with my selection. Went with the American Racing Mojave with simulated beadlock in 17x8 and Goodyear Wrangler MTR in 305/70-17 (34.1" x 12.2"). I have a very slight rub when turning left and wheel is at 3/4 turn. Nothing to worry about. Im now poor thanks to Greg and Discount Tire, lol. On to the pics.

Re: My New Wheel/Tire Selection

They don't seem too bad. I've had BFG MT and Dunlop Mud Rovers before and they dont seem any louder than those. Good so far.

Re: My New Wheel/Tire Selection

Sounds like you did the same thing I did. I went down to the 17's and got some tires as well for about the price I was going to pay for some 18" Revos at a local shop. Now that I look at your's i'm wishing I'd have gone bigger on the tires.

Re: My New Wheel/Tire Selection

Thanks for the compliments guys. Wheels were $192 each with the rings. I was going to go with black but American Racing discontinued them. Tires were $240 each.

Re: My New Wheel/Tire Selection

Its pretty nice, I like it so much better than the stock ride. Ive only had it on-road since I just got the wheels and tires yesterday and its all purty and clean, lol. I had it off-road a little bit before the wheels and tires and it was awesome. Oh and an update. It rubs very slightly when wheel is turned about 3/4 of the way in either direction. Ive got my air saw, hammer, and heat gun ready for the weekend. Hopefully I can get it taken care of.
