Lil wheel big tire/big wheel little tire???

[Whitetrashbeautiful]

Ok I understand wheel diameter should be half the tire size(15-31,16-33,17-35,18-37 and so on) but personal preference here. Do you like the ballon tire(15"-44 boggers) or the low profile (22's with 33's) look. Me personally I like a small rim 15-16.5 and a medium size tire(35"-40"). What's your opinion on it?

The last option


33s and 15s

16.5 or 17's w/ 38+ tires

Even though everyone seems to be running bigger wheels/tires these days, I still love the look of a 15/16" wheel with a 37 or 38" tire.

16.5 or 17s w/ 37s or bigger.

So general concensus so far is lil wheel big tire. Obvious reasons being better flotation, flex, and soaks up the bumps better. Not to mention the pavement princess/mall crawler moniker that goes along with the big wheel little tire crowd...

I like the little wheel big tire combo. But I just run what ever I can get my hands on usually. Been a couple times I ran 22rims with 35 tires just because that's what was available. Right now I'm running 15s with 33s

I too like the rim 1/2 the diameter of the tire. I run 37"s on 17"s mainly because I got a deal on them and they have clearance for the rear discs. If I went to 42 to 44 I might consider 20's, but 17's would be fine for me also.

Not a fan of the low profile look.

Anything over a 17" wheel looks awful.

Agreed.

Anything over 17" is too big.

15's and 44's

 

[chulisohombre]

I'm with everyone else. Anything above a 17 inch rim just doesn't look right in my opinion.

 

[ChrisPerry]

Yep, 15's and 44's

Yep, 15's and 44's

I like my 19.5's, but that's just me.

Well I'll be I guess there is a truck I just thought he meant she was 16.5 or 17 with 38s. Had to take a few extra looks at the pic to see a truck.
