Question Rims

So awhile back I posted about tires and have since decided on Nitto terra grapplers, in 295-70-R??? I cant seem to make up my mind as far as rim size. I can get the tires in anything I want and I am currently leaning towards a 17 or 18'' rim. What is the preference of you guys out there? I have a buddy running 20'' but I think that is a little to big and the rim price gets a little much for my taste. I am getting the Dick Cepek's DC-1 in black most likely but they only go to a 17'' then I will have to go with either chrome or polished for an 18''. Pictures would be great as well as preferences. I keep trying to look at rims and tires on trucks around me but rarely find the owner and dont want to break out the tape measure on someones truck.

Thanks,

Don't know if it would interest you, but the Moto Metal 955 in black looks different but very similar. Made in a 16,17,18 and 20" rim size.





If you're interested, let me know, i know where you can get the best price. And for tires, if you go with a 18" rim, the tire size would be 325 (width), 60 (for 33" tires) 65 (for 35" tires) r18. Not too sure about the 17s. Maybe a 315/70r17

Here, just go to supertyte.com. Call Robert and tell him Kris from MD sent ya. I've bought two sets of wheels, they cut me a deal on the shipping on the second set. He was several hundred cheaper than my good friend who has a dealer's license and can get things 30-40% off retail cost, from HIS tire guy.
