33's with a 20" wheel is just asking for issues, IMHO.... not to mention that it would look asinine...

you might want to research your tires a bit better. definitely doesnt seem like you need an extremem off-road tire for what you are doing, especially since you will only be running a 33' tire (dont do a 20' rim with a 33 either)


if i were you, id run a 33' tire with a 15' rim, or go to a 35' tire and run a 17' rim with some sort of mud terrain or all terrain tire




iroks wear very poorly, and are not well known for their use in mud, mostly on the rocks

Did you mean a 16" rim? 15" won't fit on the H3 unless you run your ride without brake rotors.

I have IROKs on my home made rig. They are excellent for offroad. On road they are noisy and wear out fast. Don't go 20" on 33's. If you must go 17", but it's better to stay with 16". IROKs are directional, which means that your spare will only work on one side of your H3. You could drive on them on the wrong side, just to get you to a workshop where they would swap it around.

1. Iroks only come in 36" or larger.
2. Not a good tire for mostly street use.
3. 20" rims are stupid
4. 20" rims with a 33" tire are even more stupid.

If you just want the aggressive look, and you don't care about onroad handling, look at the Interco TrXus MT. Otherwise stick with an AT or a well-mannered MT like the Toyos, ProComps, or new BFG KM2s.

You got it Bro, 20" wheels are for Wiggers and Semi Trucks. Your H3 needs a 16" wheel with the proper backspacing and a 33-35" tire unless you have a 4" Rancho lift.
