If N your taste is for swamp buggy N your good to go, ok for low pressure rock crawl N to cause wheel can't get off the rim/deflate so easy. OK off road tire, not so good maybe for the expressway, with center of tread wanting to round up some. But if you can get somebody N they will put em on, shaking their head all theway to the pay window. OK

My friend has 345/75/16 BFG KM2 on his 16x8" rim and they fit nice. Way better than I thought they would.

I think a 9" wide rim would be perfect. 10" would fit tires way bigger than you would ever fit on our trucks and is unnecessary IMO.

I think a 9 inch is all you will need unless you do a 15.50 or something crazy but its your choice they both will look good 9 or 10 i have seen both and they both look good. Depends on your style.

just wonderin I'm wanting a wheel with not so big of a offset the ones I have now are a 20x10 I'm pretty sure with a -24 offset and they just stick out way to much. I'm wantin somethin that pulls the tire in just a little from what it is now so when I go to put a 2 in spacer and 37s they will fit fine
