WOW!!! This is or was on ebay. I dont know about the HUGE rims, It sure does not go with the whole off-road look that I am after!

My vote is no, not for looks, but functionality..

look at the side profile..

either the tire is going to destroy the fender, or the suspension is very, very stiff...there's about 3 inches of suspension travel! yikes!

look at the front profile, the size of the wheel and tire package... the suspension is maxed out! If you raise the front end, the tires won't sag, it's maxed..yikes!

I will be honest....I think it is BUTT UGLY! The front end sets up higher then the back. Lets see you drive on a bumpy road, or across the sand with wheels and tires like that. Not to my taste, but to each their own! Yikes! All their taste must me in their mouth! Shhhh did I say that?
