It's not so much that it's 'liked', it's more out of necessity. Depending on the ride height, you have room for X amount of inches before interference. Deduct the 19" rim diameter & divide what's left by 2 (top & bottom sidewall height) & that's what you have to work with or you're going to have to start cutting/modifying (or raising) the truck.

Me personally.... I feel 4" minimum sidewall height is needed to survive our well kept roads.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
