Trust him. And when you need a stereo that ROCKS and a Play Station concealed somewhere, be sure and let him know about that as well!

First, learn to stand up and pee.
Second, be a man and get some manly tires like these: </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Get off the Bling thread! You don't even own those tires anymore. And don't you know that Super Swampers would look like crap on 24" rims? Sheesh.

If you go with a 325/45/24, it'll be 35.4" tall (going by Toyo Proxes S/T which is not an all terrain, but has a neat tread).

If you must go with 24s, I'd go with that tire. You have some taller 22" mud and all terrain options.

The 24s will give you great handling, but a much firmer ride. If you think you like it, go for it.

As for personal opinions, I don't care for the way that wheel bows out. It gives it a front wheel drive look. That's just my personal opinion on that particular wheel.

Thanks!

Ok so...besides eBay and tirerack.com what are some good websites for 22" chrome rims (and possibly tires to go with them)?

I think Office Depot may be your best bet for tires. They carry many sizes of rubberbands.

Your h2 has 3/4 ton running gear , i wouldnt be afraid of losing much braking power . I dont know how much taller overall they are than stock tires though.

You will get more brake fade. This has been discussed several times.

Check out http://www.wheelpros.com/newstyles/. Models 950 and 951 are especially cool. And come in 22" size as well.

Mordak,

On our first H2 I bought 20" Lexani VP Off Road wheels with 325/60-20 Nitto Mud Grapplers. I didn't go with 22's or anything larger due to brake distance issues (upsprung weight) and there were really no All-Terrain tires in those sizes. I too require this truck to have winter traction. The Mud Grapplers were too noisy and brakes were terrible, if not unsafe.

On my wife's H2 I bought Kaotic NT-2 in 18's with Toyo Open Country Mud Terrain tires. In my opinion this is a good balance of looks, safety (brake distance issue) and function. The Toyos are quiet and look aggressive. Besides, you ever parallel park the thing? You'll need big tires or you'll scratch those rims!
