I guess I'll be the contrarian. That's not the dumbest looking truck I've ever seen, but it's close.

See, I like the bigger tires and wheels! I hate the Raptors stock 17 inch wheels! These wheels look much better.

I can see doing that to a regular truck, but a Raptor just doesn't seem the right starting point for those types of mods. You pay a lot of money to get a truck that's specifically designed to do one thing, and then you replace all the suspension parts you just paid for so you can try to make the truck do something it wasn't made to do. If you want a big mud rig, then get a stock 250. You'd have a much stronger base to work from, and arguably an engine that's better suited for the job.

And if you're going on the trails, well the Raptor is already too wide - making it wider isn't going to help.
