Thankz for the input guyz, Ill let you know what I go with with picz to follow pretty soon.... Here is my Truck a few weeks before I sold my wheels to upgrade...





Their is a good chance that you might damage the rims, but as far as the ride is concerned, It rode just as good as Stock believe it or not... Its all about your suspension mainly. My truck uses Air suspension as its a Lincoln, So that softens the ride alot. As far as bending a rim and damaging, that can happen to any Rim whether its 17"-26"+ Wheel if you hit the wrong hole in the street... IMO

Ben
By the way, How do Shops mount and balance something like that with that little RIM... Seems impossible cuz the machine has to clamp the rim... The tread looks like it would last forever and the tire looks like it needs no air pressure
