Default Wheels question!

Will the 17x8 anthracite bullitts match the 10.5's? I've noticed people always go for 17x9's. why is that?

If they are both from the same company, the colors should match fine... That is what your asking right? 17x8 is stock size. People go for 17x9 because of the larger tire you can put on em.. I'd go with 275 in the front and 315 or 295 in the rear.. Thats with 17x9 and 17x10.5 of course...
