What is a good 17 inch wheel to use for truck pulling? I am looking at using these for almost exclusive truck pulling?
What is most important when picking a wheel for this?
Width?
Weight/strength?
Looks/maintance?
Backspacing?
Cost?
Resale?
I guess I am not sure what I am looking for in a wheel. I have always kind of been told that for truck pulling, you want a wide wheel. IDK If it's true. If it is true, then at what cost is it worth it?
I have been told that rotating mass is important also. Again at what cost? I mean if it is that big of a factor then should I look at cutom light weight aluminum rims cough racingjunk.com? Coughs at the thought of my 20 pound driveshaft.
Looks is always important, I guess that can be subjective. But I perfer it to work first and foremost because a truck in the winners circle always looks good.
Obviously, costs are a factor as is strength and backspacing.
What's everyone's thoughts on this? I am looking hard at 35's to go on these wheels.
