Ya that and the extreme lack on traction with tires like the one pictured above.

Ok thats just crazy to even try and put a set of those on a truck.

There can't be a market for those rims at all. Maybe 4x4 escalades with a 6 inch lift kit on them.

And I thought those toyo's with 26" rims where out of this world.

I wonder how much each wheel is going to weigh?

Check this out 30" rims!! Look at the tires. They can't be serious about this. These tires, if you can call them that, would ride like crap and probably only last a couple of weeks. Not that long if they are on a Lightning.

Someone who is good at photoshop needs to take a picture of an L with 20's on it and photoshop them to the size 30's would be and reduce the tires just right so we can see how dumb it will look and what it would take to put it on.

Anyone?

Wow, I couldn't imagine that.... But, check THIS out - could you imagine filling that rim with a brake rotor/caliper? MAN would that thing STOP!

Ugh, talk about snakeskin tires..... Next thing you know, you'll see the 40's, with a layer of black ceran wrap on them....

First it's "JackAss" the movie, now it's "JackAss" the wheels. What a waste.
