Found this online. I was thinking 44s would be fun to run on an S series but damn 53s?

Just needs a giant whip antenna and it'll look like an RC car

Looks stupid IMO... just so disproportional...

At least they had enough common sense to do it with solid axles. Can't say that the axles are up to the challenge though. I also don't think that it's street legal with the tire protrusion.

Depends on the state. Around here that's the norm...


Only if it were a local here, the front would be about another foot taller and the rear would be lowered so much that the rear tires would be hitting the body.


I give the Tesla Cybertruck a month after release before we start seeing this crap...

That would put Custom Offsets, official home of the Wisconsin Bro-Truck, out of business.

It is totally out of proportion and throws off the look. I could get away with driving it here where I live and not get hassled too much by the law. I think this truck is in Florida if I remember correctly. Don't get me started on the lean that some people do. I can't stand that look.
