well thanks... they'd be sexier if they were covered in mud and climbing up some rocks... but as sexy as they can be sitting in the shop i guess.

at almost $600 a tire, they better be sexy.

Are you running the stock width hummer rims at the 9.75 measurement? I am trying to keep my outside tire to outside tire width at 90". Hoping that with 5'' backspacing on a 10" wide rim with 42'' irocs will do. Mounting your 44'' boggers on a 9.75 rim will be a joy if that is what is to be used.

Glad to see this thread again! I love the direction in which it is going!

i am running the stock width hummer rim, shouldn't be a problem mounting them at all.

Watch your 5" backspacing, gets mighty close to the steering arm on the knuckle. Also worried about my tires getting too close to my links at full lock. That is why i decided on 3.5".

I'd say my outside width will be 92-94".
