Wheel and Tire Recommendations
I want to upgrade to low profile tires on either 22 inch wheels or 24 inch. I?m looking for recommendations from the experts on this site.
If you could provide pics, prices and web links that would be awesome:

Re: Wheel and Tire Recommendations
Sure, I would suggest either 22-24" wheels with no less than 40 series mud-terrain tires.
Oh, and they might rub - just a little  |

Re: Wheel and Tire Recommendations
It's gonna look nice which ever you decide on. But think about this:
Let's just say your doing your girlfriend in the Kmart parking lot and your WIFE rolls thru and spots your rig. You need to make a quick exit and you decide that up and over the curb is your best bet. Then a light bulb goes off in your head that you can't do it without ruining your 5000 dollar wheels. BUSTED. Is your marraige worth a set of low profile wheels  |

Good luck on stopping without a brake upgrade, hitting potholes, speed bumps, and driveability should be great too. I'm sure bumps won't be all that noticeable with rubberband tires.

Good points. I?m not planning on ever taking my H2 off road so I don?t mind some loss of performance but the breaking issue is very concerning to me.
How big of a wheel can I get away with without the breaking issue? |
