RIP MARK BECK RIP MY FRIEND! RIP GIZMO,My little Buddy.
I looked all over for 17" wheels with the right back spacing and my budget. I couldnt find anything in my budget so I settled with a more generic wheel (pro comp) and had to run wheel spacers to compensate for the deep BSM.
I would say if you wheel a LOT, go with the 15's more sidewall to flex and cushion the ride when aired down. If its a pavement pounder/weekend trail runner, the 17's might be nice for a more positive highway feel, less sidewall flex.

Not much Jeff, Just getting ideas so I can get started. My plan is to be able to drive to Bronctoberfest next year. Maybe not complete but want to drive there.

Keep in mind also, that most tires made for 17" wheels are a lot more expensive and the majority of them are "D" rated! If you are looking for a soft ride, go with 15" wheels.
