I'm not much help with your specific question. But I've used this comparison use to visualize difference a little more.

Thanks for the reply, I'll try to shop around a little more. I'm not looking to spend much and I liked the look of these wheels for $200 on craigslist, but haven't been able to figure out if they would fit.
I know it's a 2wd, first 2wd I've had, but I get down a lot of dirt roads that can get rough between gradings, and I also have taken it camping down roads I probably shouldn't have. Part of living in rural AZ I guess. So I'd just like to get as much clearance as I can without doing any lift...
They are 17x9 vision 372 Raptors with 25 offset (6" backspace). Can I run these on a stock 98 c1500? I'm wanting to go as tall as I cannfor tires on them...was thinking 265/70 17
Can this work out? I've been trying to figure it out all day but finding mixed results.
Thank you!
