Rim size on 33's

[XplorMud22]

i just put a 5.5 in suspension lift on a 94' X. I got 33X12.50 thornbirds, should i run a 15X8 or a 15X10 in rim. i don't want to have to trim a whole lot if possible. let me know what you think.

15X8

yeap 15x8's your best bet for doing as little trimming 15x10's will make them look bigger. but thornbirds already look badass enough!

Do you already have the thornbirds? Or are you thinking of getting them?

I believe Jason was asking because Thornbirds tend to leave a bad taste in some ppl's mouths, but it is all personal preference.

The 15x10 will give an overall "bigger" look, but will tend to rub more. I personally like the look of 15x8s on 33x12.5s, it gives a "beefier" tire look. As far as which performs better, there are many different opinions on this forum.
