So, lately I have noticed young guys (mostly) with lifted trucks with low profile tires and the front lifted higher than the rear. WTH is that all about?

Years past the rear was higher to fit bigger tires at least that made a little sense, this seems to do nothing other than point headlights in the air and reduce driver visibility.

Your right on every word. These kids call it the Cali-lean. I think its stupid as hell too. Not to mention that they can't tow or haul anything. My 2500 is leveled but thats all. I can tow n haul anything and not blind the others.
Damn the millennials

Start collecting VIN’s and taking pictures. I wouldn’t want to buy one of these used as there’s bound to be premature wear and failure in the powertrain.

It’s the same people that put 11” wide tires on 14” rims ... Their money, their truck ... But I wouldn’t even park next to one, cuz that’s how stupid I think they look ... Don’t see em here in Ohio tho

So fat girls can get in...

In all seriousness I wonder the same, takes the functionality away from the truck with how low they drop the ass end!

How can they even see? in the worst cases they are staring at the sky. This high school kid had a Hummer H2 and slammed it....but just the back.

And those wheels are stupid. I call them rock slingers. Why do you have 12" wide wheels and only 1" is actually under the truck?

I've never had any use for the angled wheels look either (i know there's a reason for it but I always want to slap a bandaid on that broke a$$ look).

I swear as much as I love Maui, the high number of angled wheels in ugly colours & very lifted tacomas with tires that look proportionately like they came off a railway car makes me wonder if thats how much pot the locals are smoking. Is that what living in island isolation does to you?

People with trucks like that probably eat cigarette flavored ice cream and kill roaches with their bare hands...
