Thanks bro:thumbs:
Well if you are gonna stay with 16" wheels then go for it but if you wanted to move up to a 17" then I would wait. Your call
Edit: I'm still kicking myself for staying with 16" wheels when I should have moved up to a 17"

I was thinking 16s cause is cheaper my tires are "new" only around 11 months so if I get the rims and them I can just buy 315/75r16

17's will give you a lot more wheels to choose from, but if you like these 16's then who cares about choices, you've already made yours!
An inch difference isn't going to make or break the looks or functionality, especially running 35's.
Personally, I prefer the look of less wheel and more rubber, hence my 15's. However, I only run 33's. If I went to 35-37 tire I would probably move up to a 16 or 17 wheel.
Here are my old 18's:
Here are my new 15's:

Lol, they're deceiving because, by going with a 15" wheel, I was able to choose from much wider tire sizes than are readily available for larger wheel diameters.
My tires are 33x13.50x15. The actual width measurement of my tires is about 14". That's incredibly wide for a 33" tire. However, they are no taller than any other 33's out there.
Also, I get my wide stance from my new 15" wheels. Many 15" wheels are available in very low offsets, mine have a -43mm offset! That translates into roughly 3.5" of backspacing, which translates into a very wide stance.

So you have fairly new tires, why not wait and buy new wheels and the 35s when the ones you have wear out? I would take the funds you are looking at using to buy those wheels that would force you to buy tires to use and put it toward your EVO lift. You may want to pick your next upgrade and put on "blinders" to all the "ooh shiney" stuff you come across, it will save you tons of money and get your rig where you want it sooner. Basically pick an end game build and focus on it on mod at a time.
And no it's not easy
, that's the problem with addiction.
