Default raptor with 26" rims?

I love the raptors look but I don't like the 17s and wouldn't take it off road, waste of potential I know, but anyone ever seen a raptor with 26s or you think it would look silly? I know you hardcore big rubber jackers are gonna freak but I'd love to see a raptor on 26s!

I'd probably have to slash his tires, because that's ridiculously stupid!Unless he was running 60 inch tires -___-

Why would you buy the ultimate offroad vehicle from Ford and put that size rims on it? That would ride so hard!

So yes, it would look silly.

Haha, naw its got soft suspension, it would ride great. I wonder how large of rubber you could get on a raptor on 26s though.

No disrespect but...


I gagged imagining the horror of a raptor on 26s. Just why.

Biggest rim I could find online was 22 but with MTs. I'm sure it's been done somewhere.

I'm not sure any of the big tire manufactures make a 35" for a 26" rim.
