I am pulling the trigger on a new set of rubber's :bleh:... Not those.
On the jeep we take a proactive approach with everything. We know that we are going to 60/80 axles in the future. How long out? well who knows. But Our plan is to replace the axles versus fix them when they break, So with that in mind.
We are thinking about buying a new set of wheels for 8 x 6.5 lug with the new rubber, that why when an axle goes we don't have to purchase wheels to go to the new axle. Eventually we will be on 40's Per my wife.!!!! :brows: (gotta love her)
If we get a 20 inch now, we will be running 37/13.5/r20 tires until the new axles come into play.
so the question is... what is the benefit of running a 20 inch rim versus a 17 inch rim with 40's? I know road manners are a big thing. but how big of a difference is it between the two sizes?
