What you guys think of these wheels? Thinking of a set of 20's or 22's with nitto 420S tires. The site only lists a 22X14 but my wheel and tire guy says there coming out with 22X9's and 22X10's.

Wheels look good. I think 22 is too big 20 looks good and you still get good "squish" at the track. I had 305/50R20 420S on my truck and towed a 8k bumper pull trailer 3300mi to Alaska and all over the place when I got up here and they did okay. The problem with running a non LT tire is they flex too much and you get mad center wear with a heavy load on. If you are not towing much they are great and cost per mile is sweet!

Casey you don't think the 420's are too much of a street tire for ya??

HAHA i'll be keepin the 18's around for the mud tires :thumb: Miah has a different wheel from the same company on his jeep he is building(they look pretty sweet). Wanna try something different than what i'm used to.

Casey I was looking at the 420's load ratings looks like if you step up to a 305/45/22 you gain a good amount of load rating (2,910 compared to 2,605) compared to 305/40/22's. You go from a 31.57" to a 32.6" don't know how tall you want it?

Thats what i was concerned about. Truthfully they will only be on the truck for 5-6 months out of the year anyway so i think i'll be ok. Does this tire hook pretty good? It seems like it should.
