    I’m pretty sure that spare tire is only there for the joke. With off roading tires that large they are almost definitely bead lock tires which can be ran at very low PSI without risk of the tire departing the rim. On top of that the tread is much thicker meaning punctures have to go deeper before they cause problems and most of the time came be fixed by simple plugs.

    Not to mention the logistics of changing a spare on a tire of that size. A bottle jack is completely out of the question and you wouldn’t be able to use a farm jack safety with the body that high. Even if you could how are you going to get that wheel onto the studs when it weighs over 300Lb?

        Well yeah but something like this shouldn’t be on a public road, the visibility would be terrible and it would be so easy to run over people or animals or small vehicles

        People’s right to their own personal joys ends at everyone else’s right to safety and not being killed on the road (especially as a pedestrian, like you wouldn’t be able to see shit in this thing).

        Drive it only on private property and transport it in suitable truck? Fine

        To a sensible person it wouldn’t be a daily driver. I’ve seen some people who are not sensible on my daily commute.

          Sure, there are definitely some assholes out there; but all we’ve got here is this picture.

          This does not show him being an asshole in anyway; dudes just existing alongside his toy. What’s wrong with that?

          A sensible person wouldn’t judge a stranger based on the actions of others.
