I got some E rated 33x12.5x17's for cheap! Now, I need some wheels. I don't want to lift, so do I need a 17x8, 17x9 or 17x10?? I tow heavy, so does width make a lot of difference? Also, how much backspace and/or offset to minimize trimming?

Thanks,

Jimbo

Well i've had great luck with my seat of Mickey Thompson II rims. They do make a 17x9 cast aluminum rim and its rated at 3000 lbs. Now I have a seat of 16x10 and i've hauld a many load and havent had a problem with them yet. Now as far as how much backspace/ offset u need to minimze trimming, idk. I got 285 on my duramax on 10s with the torsion bars turned 10 cranks and there still scrubin.

Why not put em' on some H2's

I'm putting that size on H2's we will see how they fit :D Oh.....duno what they are rated to # wise?

I thought about H2's. I actually like the way they look, but I have heard people say that they aren't rated for the weight I carry. So, I was just going to do an aftermarket wheel.

Oh... one more question... What is the difference between "polished", "super finish" and "chrome"??? Which is preferable??

Jimbo

There was a discussion on here about the load capability of the H2s, but i don't think anyone answered it. My tires are 34/12.50 and clear fine. SO with the right backspace you shouldn't have much if any trouble.

What is your backspace? What type of wheels are you running?? Got pics??

They're H2's. I believe the bs is 5".
