Really??? I think the looks are the only thing going for them. I had them on my old K5 Blazer. I think they look rather sinister at low speeds with those giant side lugs.

I know they are useless for just about everything else. :crazyeyes:

Well the commonly accepted thought is that your tire diameter should be at least twice your wheel's diameter, for both the ratio of how it looks (thats a subjective thing, especially for offroaders) and still having an effective amount of sidewall to use when aired down. I think Moby may have pulled it off successfully because of the "E" sidewall rated 40" Toyos. Even aired down to zero psi with "E" rated 40" tires you could probably safely wheel if you are running beadlocks, not so much with "D" rated and not even worth attempting with "C" rated. Just my thoughts.....

It's because 4-Wheel & Off-Road Magazine's Social Media manager thought it would be good to post a 7+year old article on facebook on August 5th, 2014.

They forgot to add the obligatory "ICYMI:" prefix.

That would explain why the Bestop JK hood applique was not on the list.

That's too funny I didn't catch that when I was reading it but I was wondering why so much talk about shackles and other things that seem to have faded into the history books.

I wonder what's next? Maybe the wheel winch!!
