Thanks for the info, but I personally think they are all too wide, unless you're going for the Jeep look

Yeah i saw that after i posted. I think the skinniest is 325/60/18 which is about 12.5/33.4. so it may not even fit on the 18x8, but i thnk there are some lr 18x9 wheels around that theyll fit on.

Isn't an 8" wide wheel optimal, for off-road use, with a 12.5" wide tire? (as opposed to a 10")
I understand this is true of 15's,,,should be the same w/ 18's.
I dunno, as I have metric tires that I need to lose (sucks paying $40-60 more per tire for a 285 or 305 for 16's vs. a 33/12.5/15),,,,,,,,
