i agree with you on that.. not a big fan of big wheels with low profile tires on trucks.. im hoping to get 38's some time.. i cant decide on what tire tho..

looks great. im against 20's it looks like if you get in wet grass and sink down a half inch you could tare out your valve but it would probably handle better on 20's... still looks way better with 16s
