If it were me I'd move them over BUT they may not fit. If I remember right when I had my tires mounted you could clearly see the stock wheel was manufactured with a detent to allow the TPS sensors to mount flat. I also remember hearing this from somewhere else.mtbpath wrote: 5. lastly, what do you do with the TPS sensors? remount on new rims or leave alone?
If you use 4x4 off road, or intend to do so at some point, you will not want 20 or 22" wheels. It would be fine if you pop it into 4x4 on a snowy stretch of road with wheels that large, but it would be a nightmare off road.mtbpath wrote:3. my Path is 4x4. do I have to get 4x4 specific rims or any wheel size that fit is okay?
4. I was thinking of 20's or 22's.

Nothing wrong with the stock 16 or 17", with 31"+ of height. 15" would give you the most flotation, but 16 & 17" are a nice compromise. I prefer 16" wheels myself.V8Pathy wrote: how about for off road, what rimes/tires combo do you recommend ? 15" rims with ?
thanks
The only thing the 15" allow over the 16" are the selection of tires. You can get some monster tires on 15" wheels, but no so large on 16". Unless you are planning on installing the whenever-to-be-released Calmini lift, I don't think 15" wheels will offer anything over 16 or 17" wheels. RacerZX has a good point. I wonder if the brakes have been beefed up because of the additional weight of the V8? Are 18" wheels the only option for all models of the V8? If so, there might be a very good reason for that.V8Pathy wrote:well on the V8s we have 18" rims. it's nice but If I was gonna get a set only for going off road, should I get some 15" with big tires ?
