they dont look too bad, but why reduce the capability of using it for offroad which it is an offroad inspired vehicle is it not?
maybe they just want to show off how much they paid for the vehicle and rims, and not worry about what it can and can't do.

i just dont get people, like the ones that put running boards on a Z71, yes i have seen this before. <img border="0" alt="[barf]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_barf.gif" />

I bet some 24 inch rims with 35 or 44 inch mudder tires would look pretty sweet. Too bad there is no such tire yet.

The low profile tire has to go, the big rims are fine, but little tire isn't. why would you buy a hummer and do that to it. BTW, i'm sure the hummer is much more comfortable, rides much smoother, has a better engine and will sell a lot better than it's predecessor, but i think GM kind of ruined it in a way. it's too short and everytime i saw a hummer i thought "damn that's wide", that's not the case with the new one.
oh well. it still stands out, but i'm sure in time it will blend in with the other cars/trucks.

i think dodge got it right with their setup. they have a decent 20" rim with plenty on tire for street and dirt use. any samller and it wouldn't look right.

some people like that crap, but me, think it looks like ****. twenty+ rims just look like crap. i am a preformance kind of guy, so big wheels i just dont like. same goes with putting them on trucks, why ruin something good. trucks are trucks, sports cars are sports cars, and ricers well we all know what they are, a wast of time. i do like imports with turbos though, there in a class of there own, until those dipshits rice them out.

i don't mind the big wheels on big vehicles so long as its a show truck and not trying to go fast. 24s is a little big for anything in my opinion. 20s would be my limit on a truck thats designed to go fast. however, one of the cops in gonzales has a blue yukon on 22s and it looks damn good. and even for being a huge SUV on 22s it still beats the **** outta my truck. don't know what he has done to it, just says "no comment" and won't pop the hood.
