Rim Size

Bmac · 01-16-2006, 06:54 AM

Can anyone tell me the advantages and disadvantages of 15" rims vs. 16" rims for 35"X12.50"s? I've heard that 15" rims and tires go aout of ballance more often. Anythig else??

that is bogus. The only reason to go 16 instead of 15 is brake drum/rotor clearance, Or if towing 16 can be had easier with a higher load capacity. As for out of balance sooner, Stop listening to whoever told you that, They will only give you more bad infornmation.
