He wouldnt get across a wet lawn with those. I think mud is out of the question.

The tires are a mud snow rated but really can you lower the 4x4 on these trucks? He is willing to sell them.

Yea, Mudding? If he does, I wouldnt doubt if he breaks a wheel. Those kind of tires are no wear near durable for mudding.

The rims look nice, and the truck looks nice, but not together. Especially not when you've got a winch on the front and a boat in tow. With a 4x4 he should stay with the stock rims and get bigger tires maybe. Possibly do the torsion bar lift. If he wants to lower it he should've got a 2 wheel drive.
