I am not saying I don't like tom4bren's VX or trying to give him a hard time, my opinion though is that the VX looks better with only a little tread sticking out. The whole "offset" thing is pretty confusing anyways. It is much easier to look at the back spacing and tread sticking out.
    True, true. Offset is one aspect. When you go over 285 width with <=0 offset, the stance gets a bit awkward as well as additional stresses on suspension and axles...

    And the oh so neat rooster tails from the front tires on wet roads.

    I don't see us picking on you tom, it's just a matter of opinion like lifted or not lifted. Personally, I think your wide tire stance looks pretty cool, but I'd never go there for fear of vehicle inspections and extra stresses on the stock parts.

    The coolest thing about the VX is how many ways we can express our selves with it. Just the difference in "attitude" between a lowered VX with 20" rims and one lifted with 15" rims is neat to see. (Not too many people can beat ldub and his tricked out personalization of his ride!!- you can hear it growl just looking at a picture) Some people do forget to be supportive as opposed to a bit critical.

    cheers.
