I used to ask the same thing. I am not young. At 43 years old I have had people ask me why I modify my truck at my age. Just drive it they say. It’ll be fine they say. I just look at theirs and ask them why they don’t? You go to a car lot to buy a vehicle and until you make it your own, it’s just another truck on the road. I have never lost my truck in a parking lot. I can tell my truck from a good distance, even by sound.
I have to say that the 22” wheels just fit the truck better. These trucks are not small. To throw a dinky 17 or 18” wheel with an undersized tire on there just cries out “look at all my wheel gap!”. Replace only the tire with a bigger one and it’s all tire. That looks stupid too. In certain situations this might be good for performance but I think people who stuff a big ol tire on a stock rim just to get that lift need a lesson in saving money and doing it right. Now, don’t get me wrong. I don’t do rubber band tires and 30” wheels. I think those look stupid too. I like a decent sized wheel but I want to retain my ride comfort which is why I went with the 305/40/22. Still rides like a truck but it corners well and responds faster to steering commands. I know its not a sports car but enhancing steering, breaking, power or looks can only be a plus.

They cost too much.
And you make more people want to steal your wheels.
I know the larger tires have thinner sidewalls now too.
I'm not 43, I'm 64.
I can make it mine without wheels that big.

The tires look like Wagon Wheels. They wheels get bent too easily if you hit a pot hole.

The General Grabber UHP is a nice tire that has a very square shoulder for a wider tread width. The tire looks wider than other 305-40-22's as a result.
Another tire you should look at is the Cooper Zeon LTZ. It's a hybrid street/all terrain tire that rides very quietly compared to other tires that look as aggressive.
I've got them on my Harley Davidson F150 & love them. Check the pics in my album.
There's a few Limiteds on this forum with the Coopers.

No rubbing whatsoever. They're are almost identical in diameter to the OEM Pirelli's.
Post #436. I think there are more pics...but here's a start on this forum.

Here's an even bigger Terra Grappler 305-45-22 on a Limited.
That's all I could find right now. There's more though....I remember seeing the Coopers on both Limiteds & newer Harleys.
