More tire sidewall than wheel.....sure 16-17's will last longer......flames begin

Sure after market wheel selection may be limited per vehicle

As here in pic

33" BFG AT KO2......285-70x17 on a 5x150 Toyota Bolt spacing

I have the exact set up. My wheels are black.
I don’t mind the KO2s

I have the icon stage 3 I think. It’s been pretty solid on and off road.

.

if you go from a 33" tire to a 35" tire you gain 2.6% distance per revolution. will your wheel wells and fenders on the front handle the extra 2 inches on turns, does your truck have the tourk to handle that diameter increase in [bleep] ground.

You can’t even spell torque, why would anyone trust your math?

lol

WELL Slumy i never was any good at spelling and I do not always check my book on 10,000 most commonly mispelled [ thats on the book] misspelled words.

So think what you will I am good to go

I would go with the smaller diameter wheels... Better ride quality, Better traction, Longer lasting (IMO), Cheaper Price and Less chance of damaging a tire or bending a wheel on sharp impacts... What's not to like...
