Are you mentally impaired?
LOL. And you accuse others of ranting off topic?
Talking to a toolbox like you is absolutely painful.
You just keep contradicting yourself and dancing farther away from the facts to avoid being wrong.

I said 20s are cheaper than 18s, and the ones that were price checked while I was standing there are, so were multiple others that the guy said he checked over the course of his job at the tire store, I didn't say anything that wasn't true, ever. But it sure is funny your mission in life is to keep this thread off topic, lol!
Oh, and unlike you I stopped mentioning irrelevant tire sizes after I discovered he already had the tires, except when talking to your dumb *** of course, since you can't keep on topic. Guess you can't figure out how to make your own thread either so you have to keep hijacking this one.

How is that a logical comparison?
How are stock sizes relevant to the OP's situation?
You never were on-topic.
You're like a pull-string talking parrot on crystal meth.

Your claim that 20s are cheaper than 18s & 17s is untrue, especially in this case, and now you're spinning the facts to say you didn't know he wasn't interested in stock sizes, which is yet another lie because you wrote this early on:
sounds to me like hes just trying to increase his overall tire size, and my question was why 17s? I know for a fact that rubber for 18s costs more than rubber for 20s, so I would assume rubber for 17s would be even more. Since hes asking for offsets hes obviously not got 17 inch rims now and is looking to buy the correct ones. Its his truck and he can do it whichever way he wants, but I would get 20s and a tire that meets his overall size want and it would be cheaper. I just want to know why he wants 17s, which from my understanding is the smallest rim size that will fit due to the calipers. Is it because he wants a large tire and doesnt know the 20s route would be cheaper? or does he want massive rubber sidewalls for extreme off roading? Im not trying to tell him what to do, Im just curious for his reasons for wanting 17s as it seems to me to be a very strange choice for these trucks.
Go away.

Yes, I was there. I was pointing out he probably could achieve his wanted overall size with larger rims for cheaper than 17s and larger rubber but since he has the rubber already it really doesn't matter. Also after hearing the conditions in which he plans on driving in frequently for his job I agreed that 17s would be the better choice for him.

so I would assume rubber for 17s would be even more.
I have been tire shopping for awhile, and have found ever tire I have looked at including the LTS MS 2 are cheaper in 17" and 18" sizes. So much so, that I have concluded that I can afford to get aftermarket 17" wheels along with the new tires.
And I want the 17's in an E rating for better towing.

If you would have left out that part of the statement, this silly argument would never have started.

For the last time, you can't compare 20s of one model to 18s of another.
Now please STFU and GFY you brainless f'kn redneck.
