What Wheel Size? Keep Oem Or Not? Opinions Please!

My 2010 silverado came with 20's. It’s the first truck I've had with them my 2008 Sierra had 17's. The tires and wheels on the 2010 ride great no complaints there just don't like the tires of course. The OEM 20's are not my favorite by far I wish they hadn't changed them but they did and I got them. On my 2008 I got some 18" Helo maxx 6 wheels and put some cooper zeon ltz 33" on them and liked them..and they looked good. So here's where I need some input... I hunt a lot and at times this takes me in to some ruff spots nothing like where these off road guys go but still not your everyday paved road. Would the 20's do fine in this type of environment? As I've said I've never had any before and have never been with anyone in this type of terrain with them. I'm for sure going to have to sell the OEM 20's cause I just don't like them (some do I guess) but wouldn't mind replacing them with some other OEM 20's. I also wouldn’t mind getting another set of 18" wheels if this would be a better size for what I use my truck for. I would really like to go with the cooper zeons again they done excellent when I went off road but probably would not be able to put the 275/70/18 (33.15") back on with an 18" wheel since I won't be raising this truck as much as my last and they rubbed on my last truck with a 2.25 leveling kit, 2" rear blocks and a 1.5" body lift. I'm just putting a 2" leveling kit on this truck. So here's a few last questions besides what I've asked already....is after market wheels as good as the OEM wheels in terms of lasting etc.? If I keep 20's on the truck with a 2" leveling kit which tire would fit better and look better a 275/55/20 (31.93) stock....or 275/65/20 (33.03")?

 

I know I've asked a lot in this one post but I'm trying not to make multiple post...I don't post all that much but get on here a lot. I've got some excellent information on here and again that’s why I'm here! God Bless

How do they look? I'm currently thinking about gettin' 20" wheels, right now I only got 17's. But I would like to have the 20's.

STINSAN3...here's what I could get. It took me tell right before dark to get these. Its been raining on and off all day. Sorry the truck is dirty from all the rain and traveling on the wet roads today...its been hard to keep one clean around here it rains about every other day. I always keep my wheels polished but right now you can't tell which they only have 1500 miles on them I've had my truck about a month now. Also I tried to get the back of the wheel the best that I could, and also to give you a different view of them...hope its what you wanted.

I like those rims, & your truck doesn't look dirty at all. I don't live too far away from you, I live in Richlands. Yeah this side of the state sucks!! But Not a major issue to me, imo. I go through Wise when I visit my family, they live in Lee co. I would really like to see those wheels in person though.
