6k pound trucks on IFS aren't designed to be jumped.
i would hardly call what im doing in my sig "jumping" my truck the front right tire is still on the ground. but i dont mind i built my truck to offroad, have fun and look good. i think i succeeded in that, i know things break when you drive like an a$$hole and im prepared for that. soooo back off, your truck couldnt even drive through sand let alone get up a dune.

More than likely he has 28" rim on 325/35/28 tire which would be 37" and look exactly like whats on my buddys H2 Hummer. Definetly not off roading tires.
Gotta love the H2, even on 37"s no lift required...

ahh yeah, that would be a big NO, just not my taste.


and as far as big rims on lifted trucks, they don't go together. more sidewall = better!!! IMO

Each to there own, but I hate huge rims with no tire sidewall on trucks. On sports cars its sex, but on trucks its fugly. I think the more side wall the better on a truck.

Im 2wd though, and I dont really offroad other then to go camping a few times a year. Props for people getting their trucks how they want. Its awesome owning a truck that you love.

In my opinion it's all about proportion. Personally I think 44's look bad on 15 inch wheels but they would look awesome on some 24's. Just like I think 35's on 22's look bad but a 35 on an 18 inch wheel looks great. It's whatever you like.

Yet you still wont see me with a thread "omg my truck keeps breaking cuz i dont know how to wheel, i think i need to sell it"

wide tires are good in the sand.... wider surface area... thats fine i may have had issues with my truck, but i would rather sit in my truck while its broken then drive yours. so now that this thread is off topic go **** yourself

LOL clearly you know nothing about off pavement driving. Wide surface area + deep lugs = digs into the sand, not grip it. dont try to act like you know what you're talking about, you already look stupid. And if i really want to offroad hard, i'll use my '77 chevy regcab shortbox, lifted, locked front and rear, 383 stroker, etc. I would much rather wheel that then yours you gotta pay to play, get an old beater to wheel hard, not an expensive, nice truck.

This thread IS off topic, so i'll leave it alone, and you can go ask daddy for money to fix your ****.
