Good video comparing wheels and tires

Short but sweet with a few interesting comments. 1:45 in and he explains why he does not recommend 17" wheels.

I did not know that Method made a 703 in a +40 offset. I've only seen +35 offset.

I have never bought that rationale regarding not going with the 17" wheels. Where are all these rocks that are supposedly getting stuck between the caliper and the wheel? And why would rocks get stuck in that space but not the only .5" bigger space using 18" wheels? If anything, wouldn't the smaller gap with a 17" wheels keep more rocks out?
