Wow, not much room to air down there, I have a guy with a LR3 who can tell you how poorly short sidewalls do. Of course this in BC lots of rock and sharp wood maybe Texas has less tire hazards off road.

Plenty of limestone rocks in the TX Hill Country which are not tire friendly. More tire & less rim is always the way to go when going off road, but it does look like you've got more sidewall vs say the stock 18inch wheel and OEM sized tire.

Could be the image @Best4x4 just looks short to me. On the flip side it is well off the ground.
