I live in Idaho... not a minority here.

And jeeps are only an icon nationwide, because 95% of the mall crawlers with 35's and 37s like to fantasize and portray the image that they are like those of us who beat up their jeeps and do take them out into the dirt and rocks. It's a social icon... but a social icon that emulates the rare true off-roaders.

Now 5% of mall crawlers emulate your rare true thug drug dealer (easily spotted by having 20's) on their rig... cough, cough OP.

p.s. I know the OP is probably a great guy, and has no affiliation with drugs or drug dealers, has a job, but it's our duty to attempt to shame him into not getting 20's. I wish the someone had done the same thing to me when I wore paisley in the 80s. Now I have to live with a god-awful HS yearbook photo for ever.

Although I'm not particularly fond of 20s, my buddy's jeep has 35x20s and it doesn't look bad. Actually looks a lot better in person.

Actually, I was planning on slinging dope on the street corners, so I wanted to make sure my ride represented and people could see me coming a mile away. Maybe get some of those spinner rims that were popular 10 years ago...lol Just kidding. I hear what your saying. But truthfully, am I going rock crawling every weekend, no, off road, sure. Now if I said I was looking at 24's, that would be totally g.h.e.t.t.o... I really didn't think the 20's were all that bad..again, personal opinion

Here's a pic of my 08 with 18's & 35's.

I'm sorry but I just don't agree. In Florida, the majority is the people that want a beach ride, and other just want something to look badass in. Take a 20x12 equipped jeep and park it next to a 15x8 equipped jeep. Grab a random person and ask which looks "cooler". I am almost certain that they would pick the 20x12 jeep. It's not so much about looking like an off-roader anymore. It's about looking badass and "cool," and dramatic. It just so happens that jeeps, being extremely customizable, fit the bill.
