Pros and Cons of 20" versus 22" wheels

[HUM-IT]

Guys,
Need some advice, I really like the look of the KMC XD Monster wheels but I am confused on wheel sizes and the impact on handling, braking, chassis rubbing etc based on wheel selection. Do I go 20x9 or 22 x10 - I have searched the forums and I see some folks have the 22x10?s KMC XD monsters and wanted to get some feedback.

My only criteria is that I really don?t want to modify my H2 and would like to impact handling as little as possible.

hi i have the kmc rockstars i love the look i have 20 x 10 with 37 inch muddgrapplers. they handle nice .. but they do affect breaking distance and acceleration quite a bit. i would think the 22 's would be even worse.. so i would stay with the 20 's or smaller. unless you dont mind those problems. but whatever you chose they will look nice . good choice.

How much lift do you have on that rig? Also, where did you get those and at what price? I was looking at the same wheel. Also, any issues with wheeling scratching them up? And...last one...is it a flat black or is there a clear caot and a shine to them. Seems like they would be easy to scratch since the rim flushes at the center. Thanks in advance bro....VERY NICE LOOKING TRUCK...btw.

im putting these rims on my h2 aswell, i was wondering if the grapplers was the only option you could go with because on 4 wheel parts thats the only tire it brings up fo that size

thanks ! i have a 6 inch fabtech lift , for the wheels i had to wait for a couple months to get them instock.. but ive seen them other places lately.. i got them at 4 wheelparts.com http://www.4wheelparts.com/PPT4727T100106.aspx and got a really good deal.. i think i paid alittle under 1,000. bucks shipped for the wheels and lug nuts. thats for the 20 x 10 . no i havent had any scratching at all.. i take the center part off for wheeling. the star part you can take off easy so that helps. they are flat black. i really like the way they turned out . yeah i though about trying the toyo also.. i figured id try the mudd grapplers frist. i really like them

Sorry for the thread jack,

Question, would a 4 inch suspension lift H2 look funny with the stock rims and tires?

Anybody have any pics of that configuration?

Thanks much

thought Id post here since your gettin some answers to your questions, I have 20s and 37 inch muds and also have a set of stockers I was thinking of trying out, but wanted too see a pic before I applied the labor.

I really like your H2, but the spare really needs to match.
