Help Deciding

I have a 2002 GMC Sierra with a 6" Superlift. I have 20s on it now, with Nitto Terra Grapplers 305/50/20 which are like 32.25 in diameter. I have had these tires before the lift, and planned on getting bigger tires when they wore down.

The question is, I want to stay with the Terra Grapplers, best rain and snow tires I have EVER had, and I love the look. I can go with a 325/60/20 which is like a 35/12.9 tire, or get 22" inch rims and get 325/50/22. Same width and about the same diameter, just bigger rims. But I can't find any pictures of an offroad 4x4 look out there, with 35s on 22s. I can find plenty 35s on 20s.

Any help?

I do believe that is the joke of the post...like telling someone to make sure they change the washer fluid regularly

Yeah, I realize not everyone in the world knows that diesels use compression to ignite the fuel/air mix and not spark plugs, but I used to work at a service department for a big dealer and we had a guy come in for service and wanted new spark plugs for some reason. The service writer thought he was joking and just started laughing, making the guy quite angry. After the writer realized he was serious and tried to explain why he thought that was funny, the guy truly did not believe there were no spark plugs to replace. We had to actually walk him back to the shop and take off all the plastic covers and let him try to find a spark plug to make him happy...$50k excursion and not a clue. He bought it for his wife to drive their kid's carpool twice a week
