    As long as you have sliders and something that isnt a street tire it would be fine. A locker would help but isnt totally necessary.

    plus no sliders.... chrome "step bars" that's it. I don't like them anyways... they could "help" a VERY small bit.

    I found both of the sets I bought on craigslist. One set I paid $200 and the other set I got for $100. The second set was scratched up. Didn't matter to me, I was painting them anyway.

    Its more fun that way :D:D

    hmmm I dont know. The chrome bars would most likely get dented pretty good and it would suck to dent the rockers. Its up to you, you could stay on the main trail and meet us at the end of one that you didnt try since they all kinda loop together.

    offroad. Smaller rim = more sidewall :D

    I actually have a jeep now. Imagine that.
    Very few trucks need to worry about quantity of sidewall on this forum lol

    Seriously, you gain half and inch of usable side wall. You really need to worry more about the side wall of the tire than the wheel as long as you are 18 inches and under. The sidewalls on my 18 inch trail grapplers more than make up for the sidewall of most sidewalls on other tires

    true

    I agree to some extent. But when you start airing down and crawling over rocks, more sidewall is really nice to have especially if you have 33s or smaller. I have 17s and wish i got 16s.
