Re: Tire stretching on my 00 Excursion
True. I have a set of 16.5x14 welds on it now with 35inch boggers for that. I picked the tires and rims up at a deal I couldn't refuse. Thats the reason for doing the fuels like that. They will be up for sale to fund another project

Re: Tire stretching on my 00 Excursion
Not necessarily but the stretch tire thing just in my opinion looks goofy as fuck especially on an excursion or any super duty. I know that a lot of those guys do this though. Theres nothing wrong with putting some normal sized all terrains on there.
yea the thing that sucks is the tire choices with 16.5 wheels.

Yea the tire choice does suck. Thankfully the boggers are pretty much new also, so they will last a while since I don't drive it much.

Re: Tire stretching on my 00 Excursion
Its been a while guys since I have done any posting up here, so I figured I would share what I have been getting my ass kicked by for the past 2 weeks. About 16 cans of ether and many of hours I finally got my new tires put on.
They are 20x14 fuels hostages on 33 13.50 iroks. Thought I would never get them to stretch

And it looks fucking stupid as fuck.
And yes I have mounted these and other similar sizes personally.

The first decent turn you make at more than 10mph in your 8,900lb vehicle is going to knock that bitch right off its bead.
I no like. Please do not post pics of them on the Excursion, please.
