If safety is your concern I would first start with your desire to go above an 18" wheel. I had 20" Lexani's on my H2 and although the ride was okay, the braking was horrible. When I went with 18" rims on my wife's H2, the brakes worked as good as stock.

Looking at either putting on 22" or 24" wheels with lower profile tires that will improve the handling and braking of the H2.
I'd prefer to get lighter (still strong) wheels on the truck. The look is not critical. i.e. not putting on spinners!
Would keep the original wheel/tire set for offroading weekends or trips to snowy places. The weather that I usually have to drive in is either dry or a bit rainy. Sometimes it is a LOT rainy.
Any suggestions? I don't want really *heavy* wheels that will slow down the acceleration and adversely affect the braking of the vehicle.
