15x10 or 15x8 Wheel

I have 15x8 Crager Soft 8's and im going to be purchasing a 33x12.50R15 tire shortly once i decide on which one i want. Would that size tire look better on a 15x10 or will it be just the same on the 15x8?

It all depends on the backspacing of the wheels. Generally, a 15x10 will cause the tires to stick out of the fenders more. It is all in your preference of how it looks. Some people don't like tires to stick out too far, others prefer it.

15X10's will cause more W&T than 15X8's.

These are 15x8's Imagine the tire sticking out another 2 inches, and that would be a 15x10
