that's a lot of great info ccdan, but you don't take into account tire sizing (width and profile) which is crucial to whether or not the setup will fit.

I guess I could have went into that but I personally look at that after the fact as rim width plays a huge roll in how the tire will sit. So what you might have thought you wanted in say a 9" wide wheel might not stretch the tire you wanted right so you may need to run with a 9.5" or 10" or have to switch what tire your using. Not really a perfect answer which to do first; best to guess at what you think first and then finalize things from there.
