38x15.5 offroad on stock hummer

[JPorter]

That's true off-roading! Driving it off the pavement doesn't count for off-roading.

Murf,

It looks good, I'm surprised you were able to get those tires on there without a liftkit.

Just be prepared though, like the others mentioned, you won't have a lot of ability to jump curbs even without rubbing...let alone going off roading.

The least amount of flex in your suspension with the wheels turned will either rub or tear something up.

Having said that, if you don't offroad, then don't worry about it. It looks good.

^^^^ I agree

For my application it works just fine, the rubbing is not bad, I'm more into mud and snow not rocks. I guess after thousands of hours in a skidder (which will go only where hummers have wet dreams of going) i don't find that crawling over rocks much fun. And OFFROADING does not consist of only driving over rocks.

Yes, but it still looks pretty damn sweet!

That little farm skidder looks nearly brand new.

I can guarantee any Hummer will go anywhere that little skidder will go. All they will have to do is stuff those Ag tires underneath and hope they don't rub.

I can guarantee your wrong. Ag tires or not, there is no way

That reminds me: has anyone mounted Ag tires on their H2? When wheeling a couple weeks ago, the owner of The Alberta Safari Park rolled a set up to my vehicle, and we were trying to gauge whether we could get them to fit or not. Of course, you can get them in many different sizes, but in general, we found that anything with the diameter one would need looked more like pizza cutters. I'd be scared of how little lateral traction I would get with them, too. And the fact that I couldn't use them on the highway, but that's what a second set of rims are for.
