I think big rims on a mud tire looks sick. And this whole issue on being a poser is a little stereotypical. Basically your saying that if u want to drive a lifted truck on mudding tires then you have to be a redneck who's only purpose for the truck is to go wheeling. I live in central Florida and i can't tell you how many trucks I've seen lifted on 22+ rims on 37+muds that wont even park in the grass. Hell my truck would be sitting on 24's and 38s of i had the money for it. For some people its more about aesthetics then functionality and vice-versa.

I agree with you on that, and repect your beleif.

I personally like the look of big rims and mud tires on lifted trucks, but at the same time I need a rim/tire combo that allows me to use my truck for work duties (including pulling that transfer-case lever back a little bit). If I had more money, I would buy 20's and some A/T tires to use for my everyday setup while keeping my 17's and M/T's for work and play. Right now though, I am saving my money to put in 4.88 gears and a locker... yet again, Function > Form to me.

OK finally. I have 17's on boggers and just got 20's. I will be getting all terrains for the 20's. I don't think that the bigger the wheel the less agressive you can be. It's all about the MONEY that you can spend. I personally have to save for every thing that I get. Not everybody crawls rocks anyway. Some of us just mud ride. A big wheel don't effect anything there (I guess) unless you're afraid to scratch them

I meant the wheels. 17's aren't all that bad are they? I just only wish i could get 24's. I had to settle for 20's for the future upgrade. Do yall like the Hella black headlights? I just got'em.
