Default Lifted Cars w/off road tires

I want to find a car to put some big tires on... I don't mean monster truck style, but like 31x10.50's or so for a general sort of Mad Max/Road Warrior vibe. I know they make lift kits pretty commonly for donks. So I thought maybe a 77-90 Caprice would make a good choice. I also assume that if they can handle the weight of 26" rims they could also handle a large flotation tire. Is there anything technical that I'm overlooking that would prevent me from doing this? I assume I'd have do make a few trims and cuts like almost any vehicle you put a larger tire on. Any other model suggestions ?


here's the neighborhood I'm wanting to live in:

If I had won the lottery or something and just wanted to fuck off a bunch of money.... It still wouldn't be on something this stupid.
Just buy a truck.

Yeah, that one through me off a bit too. I always thought like the older Forester and CRVs with a lift and bigger tires were interesting.
