here's a pic for comparison of a tsl and a tsl sx both on 10 inch wheels .
aluminum wheel is tsl sx, 38.5 x 14.5
and steel wheel has the tsl 38.5 x 16 do they look funny .
maybe the tire looks a little funny also because of the size, to big for the lift ..maybe need a little bit more lift or smaller tire . just a thought ,i think we need a pic showing more of the whole truck . just typing random thoughts

36x13.5 IROK on 15"x10"W wheel 
Personally I would go even wider if you can fit them, I really want a set of 35 x 14.5 x 15 Pitbull Rockers. I think my 35 x 12.50 procomps are way to narrow especially on 10" rims.

this shows both the 37x13.5 Irock and the 38.5x14.5 SX on the same 8" rims...
my truck is on its side on the Upper 2 ledge at tellico (wierd perspective)
(I now run all 4 Irocks)

you got any shots from the front?
give me a day and i'll take a couple poser pics. All my pics are from wheelin and none of them are very straight on.
I disagree all the talk of the wheels being to wide. I have 35x12.50s on 10 inch wheels and they look good. I don't lose air from the inner or outer beads when wheeling with at little at 10 psi. I think yours look funky because iroks are a f-ing ugly damn tire. Get some TSLs or SXs and they will look great.

A 10" beadlock is wider. 11" or 12".
Here's a pic of my fat a$$ 38 in tsl super swampers. There almost dead. Next ones will be just a wee bit narrower.- Matt
I realize that you just wanted an excuse to post a picture of your junk on here but why don't you tell us what size wheels you have, since that is what this thread is mainly about--tire and wheel combos. An iso or profile shot would also have been more helpful than that front view.
Part of the reason your tire/rim combo looks okay is because you have a much bigger tire than the original poster (it is a ratio thing). The Irock also tends to baloon more than a BFG does. TSL's of any type look funky on a wide rim..
I agree, it is a ratio thing(did cam have a 33" Irok? I assumed it was a 35).
However, my father has 35x15.50 TSLs on 12 inch wheels and the tires look good on that rim. (I don't have any pictures of that combo at work.)
I think that the main problem is that the Irok is simply an ugly tire, which adds to the roundness and wheel width issue.
The original poster what a front pic, so that's what I gave em. So shut your piehole 74 UA FJ. ( yea I'm talking to you

Bias Swampers all balloon. Radials are square.

You still didn't say how wide your wheels are, so your post is still useless to this thread.
