    The same shit everyone else has.
    I drove 2 VWs with stretched tires for over 10 years. Never once did the tire or wheel fly off and kill someone. At one point I was running a 205/45 tire on a 10.5” wheel and it was fine. The beads never popped off. The tires never burst into flames.

    Years ago when I had a Jeep, one of our friends had a Toyota with a 4" lift and tires stretched out more than yours. We were off roading for hours. No prob. On a dirt road leaving the trail, my buddy passes me on a right hand turn. His left tire blows off the bead and the whole truck shot up in the air and flipped on the drivers side. Just a bunch of kids having a good time til that happened. I'm glad him and my brother didnt get hurt. Truck was totaled.

    It was a truly an impressive sight to see in person. Like a stunt straight outta the movies. Scary though because friends and family in the truck.

    Not hatin on your setup at all. Just reminded me and thought I'd share. I know "whom asked me" right? LOLs

    It's your truck, your money, do what you want. But these two comments make you sound like an ass. Someone already mentioned no one's going to track you down for chipping/cracking their windshield and I can guarantee no one appreciates your bright ass lights when they can't see shit. There's a reason some states make you cover them up. I was out in the middle of nowhere, north texas, forgot I had my bar on and came up on another car. After a minute a I remembered and turned it off but the car already decided to let me pass then tailgated me with their high-beams on.

    You are a true visionary in the offroad sense. I think most offroaders have been building their rigs all wrong. The wider squat stance with overinflation of psi might be the missing link in conquering tough offroad trails. Please keep it coming OP, I love it!

    You are quite wrong sir. You can obviously see that he easily conquered it with his 60psi 10" wide Interco swampers on 15x12 wheels. Most here would've driven around that massive obstacle..I'm speechless, @Fattaco11,...simply speechless.

    I’ll just leave this alone as others have stated why this is a terrible idea.

    But no. No love here.

    How close does that come to your drums in the rear?

    Also never been a fan of shit that wide. Stalky is ok but that just doesn't seem practical.

    I love the look, but... Man I've got the wide tires and can't find some real good mud flaps to keep the mud rain salt ect off. I got the tuck a few months back and have yet to get into it and see if theres spacers I don't think there is but I know theres an offset on my rims. I am thinking some big rivet style fender flares will do it no? I've got 33 12.5 20 wheels on this thing tho IMG_5274.jpg
