Yep,
The "right" way would be to go with a wider wheel.
Mine have been on this truck for about 20k with no issue. I drive this truck like a sports car.
I think it would take some of the slop out of it in the corners with a wider wheel.
The GM dealer here told me to keep the stock wheels because all these wider aftermarket wheels never have the right backspacing which almost always causes the front wheel bearing to get eaten up...
I'd like to theow some black 18" MotoMetals on this truck, but I don't need headaches.
