18" or 20" wheels??

[darren Toth]

OK, finally got my new wheels/tires and am very happy with the results! Went with 285/70/18 (34"×11.5") Nitto EXO rubber on 18" Moto Metal 962 wheels with 0 offset. Even though the new tires are about the same height as the 285/60/20 that I had before, they look much bigger because of more sidewall, look fuller, kinda like an illusion.

I was definitely nervous when the wheels came in as I couldn't picture what they were going to look like on the truck, luckily I think i made the right choice, whew!!! Lol

My last truck (14 Silverado) had 18s and my Current (17 Ram 1500) came with 20’s. honestly I thought they both rode quite nicely. And really there are good arguments both ways. Personally I don’t think I’d ever go larger than 20 myself.

35" tires on 20" wheels serve no beneficial purpose whatsoever on a 4x4 truck. 18" rim max. I have 37's and 20" wheels the previos owner bought. When my tires wear out I will be going with an 18" wheel.

37's on 20's should look pretty good I would think, would have the identical sidewall as 35's on 18's. Yours now would have 1/2" more sidewall than my set up

I would still rather have 18" wheels even with 37's.

How are those Nitto's treating you?
