Wheels...Torq Thrust 2 vs. 2.1 AND 17 vs 18"

Decisions decisions. Please let me know your comments on American Racing TT2 vs. TT2.1 (or identical substitutes), and in using 17" vs. 18" rims. Our "plan" was 18x9.5 (4.5 bs) on rear, 18x8 (4 bs) on front, but these seem to be Non-standard and hence much higher priced and much longer delivery than 17" cousins.

Many thanks...all pros and cons of any option greatly appreciated.

Regardless of the style, check prices on tires for 17, 18 and 20". I think you will be surprised. My suggestion is go with 18/20 combo. They just look right on these trucks.
