Default Help with foams

Ive got a set of the 1.9 pitbull combat wheels n im lookin at gettin the 1.55 pitbull growlers. Wat size foams would yall recommend? I kinda want the 'wide tire' look. Lookin at CI foams, just not sure which ones would be best. Thanks for any and all advice.

Heres the dimentions of the tires and wheels...

Thanks joker! I was lookin at those n the 4.25s, but i didnt wanna put to big of foams in them. Think the 4.0 would let the tire conform a bit more than the 4.25. Im bout to get a new truck. My father in law said to b deciding which one i want. Wat to get... Trx4 bronco, sport, vaterra ascender (ford), axial rbk, or the honcho. Idk which to get lol, i like all of them. If i get the bronco, ill get the SSD slotted wheels n keep my PB wheels for another build lol

That is pretty much exactly what the 4.0 inserts were made for.

I've ran that exact setup (1.55 Growlers on 1.9 wheels) with 4.25 Novas. The outer foams end up squished down to about nothing on C1 tires.
