15x10's+Wear

Okay, so if I put some 15x10's on, what kind of wear and how often for a replacement am I looking at? I've seen Zebeard's truck, and it looks majorly badass, and I want to run some 33x12.5's. I know they are doable on 15x8's, but I really like the wide stance look. So how often will I have to replace balljoints/bearings? Twice a year or something similar?

Thanks in Advance!

i have read some statements from people that it really cant be too much different than having 15x8 that are 3.25 backspacing and a wide/large offset. i say who cares, if ya want the look get it, and worry about the conciquinces(sp?) later.

ill be the frst to let ya know how soon, i drive about 60 miles a day now, and ill be ading the miles fast.
