Default Taller moabs?

Has anyone experimented with making taller 2.2 moabs? I've been considering making these for my wide ass WK axles to gain a little clearance, anyone have any thoughts on this? Also, what tire heights are working well for people as far as hybrid tires?

why don't you just get the 40 series? they're higher clearance and if they're too wide just narrow them

Ya, I was thinking of using the M2 sidewall and M3 tread, figured the sidewall would be a little stiffer using the M2's but still get the traction of the M3's and while I'm at it might as well try to make them a little taller.

Imex just came out with the rubicons that are 5.5" tall. I bet they would work well on the WK.
