17'' VS 18'' wheel with 35'' tire Pro/cons? Pics anyone?

[Iwannagofast]

Im in need of some new wheels/tires. Does anyone have any pictures of a 17'' wheel vs a 18'' wheel with 35's on them? My wheel options are slim. I'm looking at a 17x9 wheel and also a 18x9 wheel. Wanted a 18x10 but they didn't have the ones I wanted. Any help would be much appreciated ;D;D;D;D

I prefer the look of a 35" tire on a 17", as it more or less mirrors the look of a 33" tire on a 15" wheel, both of which look really good on an EB. I'm going 37's on 17's, so no pics of 35's. The 9" width is a great compromise between an 8 and 10 IMO and nothing to shy away from.

I agree with Apogee.
I thinks a wheel that is more than half the size of the tire looks wrong on a classic truck, so a 35 on a 17 is better.

Sorry, no pics, my build is not that far along but 35 on 17 is what it will have.

X2. Also will perform better off road.

Here is a 17x9" wheel with 35's.

That is a pretty Bronco!! Love it!

Here's my 70 with 17x9s and 35s with 1.5in spacers.

Same thing as Apogee but I will add, like 15" wheels became so common they are also more affordable, the 17 is the new 15 in that regard.

17 tires are the new standard, 15 tires for offroad will slowly become harder and harder to find.

You think? 15" wheels & 35" tires is such a great combo. Only seem to be a few brands that don't offer that size...
