Should I go with a 15x8 or 15x10 wheel?

Getting ready to put a black diamond 3" suspension lift on my '97 TJ...I need some advice on whether to purchase 15x8s or 15x10 wheels. The tires will be 32X11.50 BFG AT's.[addsig]

my advise would be to go with 15 x 8, you will have more grip and a better shape when you air down, also a little less likely to pop a tyre off the bead espeacily if you use a inner tube

15x8 or 15x10 depends on the look you want.

But more important is the correct back spacing on the wheels for propper fit and performance. We ran 4 1/8 inch back spacing on our 1997 TJ to eliminate tire/frame rubbing and 15 x 8 to keep the tires from not sticking out to much and allowing the tires to tuck under the flairs when off-roading.

Note: Those tires are fine, but No inner tubes. [addsig]

I put a used set of 33-12.50-15 on my Jeep this weekend for fitment to see how much lift I need, and I used my 8in. wheels. I will have to say when I get the new 33s I will use these wheels, they look pretty good. [addsig]

15x8

I wouldn't use a 10" wide rim unless the tire was wider than 12.5", or all you run is dunes :lol: [addsig]

I like 15x8, more ground clearance with a taller tire aposed to shorter wider tire on the 15x10. :-D [addsig]
