The right sized wheels?

So... if I do have 35" and I get 15x8 crome rims, will it look goofy because the rims would be too small? And if thats too small what about 15x10? I just don't want em too small so they look goofy, but I want something around $100 or so heh

The right sized wheels?

You can ount a 35x12.50 on a 15x8" wheel and it'll look fine. the only problem you may have is they'll tend to wear out right down the middle of the tire. I have a set of 33x12.50's mounted on 15x8" rims in the garage that used to be on my truck and they wore considerably more down the middle than on the edges and I ran a relitively low air pressure in them. I would get a 15x10" rim. That will make it easy to get the tires riding flat. American Racing and US Wheel has a few budget priced rims that don't look too bad you might check them out if your strapped for cash.
