I would never talk down about any of u guys with lift kits and 35" tires or whatever u like..I love a big mud truck as much as a low truck with big wheels, but the mud truck must be a 4x4 in my opinion. The point is if u dont want to talk about 26's, dont like big rims,think big rims are dumb... ect... WHY ARE U EVEN ON THIS FORUM TALKING ABOUT 26" wheels. And burger king pays like 12 dollars an hour by my house... check out the angry whopper... its a beast.
this thread was started in 05...four years ago lol

ITs ALIVE.............ITs ALIIIIIIVE!!!!!

Well, to the jason cat, I personally like your truck. I love all kinds/styles of rides, and can respect folk's individual tastes. Its certain mentalities that I don't get along with. That goes with the whole "ricer" theme, its not the car that makes it a ricer, its the driver.

And to raminator...... kudos to you for being the forum mediator I prefer lifted trucks now, but my first truck ever was a little mitsubishi mighty max that was low enough to drag a drink can across the parking lot.

Thank you Derrick for clearing that up. That's true. You need enough room in the wheel wells to fit a big enough sidewall on the tire. The 26" rims wouldn't look bad if you had a big enough lift. If not, they just don't look right.

jason, you never answered my question. look back to page 5, last part of first post

ridinhigh, ive only seen 30" rim on a hummer
http://image.importtuner.com/f/edito...-inch-rims.jpg
i cant imagine how it would look on a ram. they probably spent just $10G on tires alone. i do think that is a waste of a hummer. i kind of like it but hummer spends all of its research on off-roading and people ruin their hard work by doing that. on a 2wd street truck, thatd be a different story. not every truck needs to be lifted and have enormous sidewall. sometimes, you need something to cruise the road next to the beach, not the beach itself. as i said before, im fine with lifts and 4wd as long as you use it. Here that all you 4wd owners. I expect pictures of you crossing the Grand Canyon by next week

ried69, if he put a lift on it, that will defeat the purpose of me saying that lifted 2wd are a waste. besides it looks good to me and he should definitely not lower it. Different is good, remember that. We wouldnt have electricity or cars if everyone did not like anything new.

thanks, im just trying to keep everyone from killing each other (not literally of course but verbally). im just tired of everyone hating street trucks that dont have a hood scoop
i feel sorry for you with that mighty max. ive seen go carts bigger than them. Got any pics. by the way, this is my first truck

Nah, no pics. It was a trip though. At 17 I was 6ft 260-270. Made this even funnier. I had to sit down sideways, then swing my feet in.

The truck had 2 1/2% tint on the sides, spraypainted back window, and at least an 8in-low windshield banner, spraypainted. Plus, when lowering it, I messed up one of the rear shocks, and just didnt put the front ones back. Sooooo, talk about a rough ride. The football buddies in the back hated that free ride

Now my opinion is the same of a druggie, the higher the better
