You know, I think that would hold up fine for a little mud... rocks would be an issue, though. Maybe he was just going for a different look and didn't actually plan on using it on the trail. |

I think someone could get away with something like 18" rims but the 20's are a bit much for offroad duty. Now if those were 20" beadlocks it would be a bit different. How heavy would 20"beadlocks be though? |

Doesn't look too bad, but taking it off-road would probably be a big no-no. Might ruin the chrome!! |

Those are for show only. BFG and Nitto and some other companies have started offering their off road tires in large diameter wheel sizes for the SUV bling crowd. Just like we think bigger tires are better there are some who like big wheels. I think they look good but are most definitly not for the trail. |

ill be sticking to 15s on everything that i own, soon as i get some bucks im gettin some steel 15x7 white holed wheels with the blue and red pinstripe around the outside. i have no use for bent rims or feeling any cigarette butts in the road or paying 3 times as much for a tire that doesnt last as long. |

I'm not a fan at all of the two door Wrangler in any capacity...too short....but this one I gotta say......WHAT A WASTE OF A RUBICON.....geez....Dana 44's and lockers on the "Bling Edition"....geez.....biiiiig waste. The only other thing I have to say is.....Chromosexual. |

Wheels are lighter than tires, lower rotational weight =lower moment of inertia=quicker acceleration. Thats why the competition rockcrawler crowd is going with larger diameter wheels |

Yeah, they may be running 18-20" wheels, but they're also wrapping anything from 35-44" of rubber around that, so it doesn't look NEARLY as "Chromosexual" (Loving that word BTW, that's the best way to describe it). I can't stand these people who go out and drop $5k for "dubs and rubber" and then put them on an SUV. IT LOOKS BAD, I don't get why they don't understand that. But hey, if that's your thing, i'm not gonna stop you from wasting your money. |
