17" wheels to 18" wheels?

[mitchely03]

hey guys just wanting some input,

 

I currently am riding on 17x8.5 Method Mesh with 285/70/17 Falken wildpeaks.

 

I am wanting to go to 35's but wondering if it will make my wheels look too small?  Would going to a 18" wheel and 35" even clear my current suspension?  Its a Maxtrac 3 lift spindle, and I added the rough country lower lift tab thing that goes on the bottom of the strut. I have no issues clearing the 33's.

 

Any pictures showing both setups would be awesome and any thoughts appreciated!

Here's 35s on 17" rims, definitely not too small IMO. I think you'd be able to clear 35s with a 5" lift like you have, and would do it if it were my truck! This is a 2.5" coilover level and he runs the 35s

Got the Zone 1.5” body lift and a 2” leveling kit. I can’t use lift spindles without going to 20” wheels.

 

You 4wd boys can use 18’s with lift spindles?

What spindles were you looking at that required 20" rims? I've never heard of that, all the spindles I know of are anything 17" or over

You can with a certain offset. Many people do it
