Why do people with trucks insist of raising their trucks and putting huge tires on??

Question

Most of the people that I see do this to their truck do a crappy job and it looks like the axles are going to snap sending the whole cab crashing to the ground.

A friend of mine is mechainic and he finds it funny to point out all the bad jobs.

Answer 1

because they have a small p***s and want to feel bigger!!

Answer 2

trying to look cool.  the only time one would ever need more than a few inches of lift is if the truck is a dedicated off-road machine.

Answer 3

If you want it strong, build it strong. Betcha can't catch me in the mud.

Answer 4

Some people actually take these trucks off roading and they need the lift kits and tires. However, most of the ones you will see are simply ego enhancement for people with emotional or physical deficiencies (small wieners maybe?).

Answer 5

cuz they're all screwed up and this i s mostly seen in EDMONTON!! they all wanan kill the environment but theyre all a bunch of stupid hockey fans anyhow and they wont settle until they get everythign they want and need!!

Answer 6

Because if they put small tires on their trucks and they have a heavy load, then the truck will drag the ground....duh???????

Answer 7

it makes up for their short comings so its said it certainly not a pleasures to climb in and feel every bump in the road

Answer 8

I believe they want to look like they got it going on, trying to be gangsta or something.

Answer 9

When done right it can look tough.  WHat really bothers me are the really load exhasts though.  It seems like every crappy neon or 10 year old pontiac has one.
