The largest I've ever seen are 17". In my opinion, I think all those new really larger diameter rims on trucks that you see nowadays look like wagon wheels. Who knows, it may look good on a REPU. Or maybe not. Well, whatever you do, you might as well try it and post some pictures.

Go to a tire shop and ask around. Bring the truck the truck in if possible.

They may look nice, but...

the downside of wire wheels is the flex. Certainly not a performance enhancement... but then again, neither are lowrider hydraulics, generally... or chain steering wheels... or stickers.

that flex being compounded by that wheel size creates even more havoc.

To each his own.. but to help you out, I think think rims that fit Pathfinders will fit REPUs.

FYI the 17's I have on mine rub when I turn the wheel all-the-way to the left...
