    This would be a good option.

    Can you please explain this further. I don’t understand how 20’s would be better than 17’s.

    This is what I was told when I asked why the guy was selling his new style TRD Pro wheels. He's heard of many issues whether it's mud clogging up the brakes or rims getting damaged from the rocks in the mud. Ever since he's switched to 20's there's been no issues. The mud in our area is nasty sticky, like if you get your truck covered in it you will be pressure washing for hours just to get the chunks out. So it gets into the wheels and causes problems around the caliper if it's close to the rim.

    So it has nothing to do with grip or ride, it's all about reliability. If the mud isn't sticky and clumpy then I figure 17's are better performing, but if I was taking my truck into some of the oilpatch roads here a lot I'd be getting 20's just to ensure I don't cause extra repairs due to the smaller clearance.

    @Ry24000 did you get the lift on? I am looking at the stage 2 foamcell pro as well. Very interested to see how it performs.

    Not saying he’s wrong, but I’ve driven a ton of gumbo in central Montana and I have NEVER heard of this.
