15x8 or 15x10

I am looking at getting some 35s for the T and noticed thAT IS ALMOST 100 BUCKS CHEAPER TO BUY A TIRE/WHEEL COMBO IN 15X8. What is the advantage to having a 15x10 wheel on the truck? Guess it puts less stress on the tire and the bead?

foot print

The wider the wheel the wider your foot print will be (more tire on the ground). The wider the foot print rhe more traction you will get. You might need to change the air pressure in the tire to make sure the tire wears right. I had 15X10 with 31x12.5 BFG AT and had to run @ 25 psi.
