advantages between 15in and 16in wheel/tyre setups

Just a little question, whats the advantages of having 15in rims with 10x33's and 16's with 265x75 both with -32 offset? as I figure theres vertualy nothing in it size wise :scratching_chin:

higher tyre wall so allows more flexing when offroad.

And you can create a bigger footprint when lowering pressures

Im assuming thats with the 15s?
Ive already got a 2" lift will I need anymore to clear the arches with that offset? Im gonna be doing a bodylift too in the next few months (once I make sure the body mounts are sound )

:laugh: yeh seen a pic of your with the 37s! Looks the dogs bits I must admit but bit too extreme for me at the minute as shes still gonna be my daily drive, was just wandering if there was any massive advanges to be had in chosing 1 over the other
So goin on your size wlm I should have plenty of room with a bodylift?
