These are some photo of my truck. Just installed the tires this week and love it. Gives the truck a more aggresive look. Let me know what you think.

Do you mind sharing where you got your rims? They're really sharp...my husband wants to talk me into a set.

PhilD:
I'm certain you're right in that there are loopholes or simply specific beaded wheel designs that meet Federal standards. My point was a generalization from what I read in four wheel magazines and what I hear from locals. I live in the mountains and there are a ton of 4-bys up here that run bead locks, but always for trail use only.
The consensus is that "functioning" bead locks are illegal because they are not required to meet the same safety standards as other products.
I've still never seen a rig equipped with bead locks on the street; only off-road or being towed on a trailer.
States may vary on their enforcement too.  |

That thing looks totally badass with those tires.
I can't beleive they are 37's! Damn that truck makes them look small.
I like the wheels too, what kind are they, Weld Mountain Crushers? Lookin' good.
It really improves the stance of the truck too. Looks much more agressive. It just looks... RIGHT.

Finally got around to checking out this site area. Those tires look sweeeeet. Just to point it out the stock tires are on a rig that has the sidebar steps, while the big-tire rig has only side-steps. The sidebar does lend towards accentuating a lower profile....so it's not entirely the tires alone....but still; those tires do to the H2 EXACTLY what I'm looking for!!!
And those are the 37" MTR's?

Love the comparison shot. I can't believe how much those tires make a difference when shown this way. I'm sold!

Congratulations,
Those tires look super. How wide are the rims?
I changed increased the width of my truck's rims
by 1" a few years ago, big improvement. This is my next mod on the H2.

Do you do much offroading? It looks like it might not take too much to get the rears to rub. Have you tried to really lean on them?

AWESOME! Hey Kirk, I bought my H2 at Daugherty, is that where you got yours? We should get together for some wheeling sometime soon.
I've checked tirerack for tires, but didn't know about 4wheelpart.com. Thanks so much for the info!
