15" vs 17" rims for 35" tires
I'm looking to get a set of beadlocks and new tires for my 3rd gen 4 runner. I am currently running 35" KM3s on my jeep yj with 15" rims. I like the amount of flex/travel that the tire has before it would contact the rim and have potential for a pinch flat which hasn't ever happened to me but apparently can when running low pressures. I am wondering if there is significant performance loss if I jump up to 17" rims with 35 inch tires on my 4runner. 17" bead locks are much more available and in theory having a larger diameter rim should make steering on road more responsive. I won't be wheeling the 4 runner as hard as the jeep but I will still be doing some crawling with it. any thoughts?
