You’re definitely gonna want bigger tires when you start using that thing off-road. Power won’t be an issue with a v8 You have 1000 cc rzrs running 35s no problem. I would use a 17 inch rim has the most tire options.
I suggest running a 16” rim and borrow the hub and brake package from a hummer H3. The factory hydro boost system and stock discs/pads/callipers can stop 37” off-road tires no problem and it’s a tight package. The bolt pattern has a million rim options. Just don’t use the H3 front differential it’s too weak.
The front hubs off a Jeep Wrangler or Cherokee or Ford F-150 or Bronco from the 90s would work well. The Jeeps have a 5×4.5 lug pattern and the Fords have a 5×5.5 pattern. (Also, Jeep Grand Cherokees have a 5×5 lug pattern from 1999 until today.) 15" wheels are a little small, IMO. I'd go with 17s.
I say 16" or 17" they make big brake kits for both sizes. Should get yourself a good used set of beadlocks. Also look into 255/70-17 or 255/80-16 they are considered the skinny 33". They track well and great for off-roading and decent at rock climbing.
Did you see the mini truck on Cleetus's channel this week. It had twin Hayabusa engines. The thing was so light and powerful he could do a wheelie on pavement. Seeing Cleetus do a wheelie donut was crazy. I think he only had 400HP, but he was light (I think 1300 pounds).

Beautiful work. I do think the 33's will end up being a little small personally, and I'd imagine power adders aren't going to be a problem. I think a simple 400hp LS would surprise you with what it can do. And if not, you have every bit of aftermarket support for other options. I'd go with 37's and either 16 or 17" rims I think.
when you have to you should build a tarp canopy to help with stuff like rain and if you want to work outside without getting roasted alive by the sun. just a suggestion im throwing out here
All serious rock bouncers run 16” or less common 17” rims and at least 40” tires. Brakes that would fit 16” wheels are enough. You wont go very fast in this vehicle, so you don’t need big brakes. You will definitely have to have a a long travel suspension. Find some strong transfer box so you could bash on this thing. Ls engine would be good just put some cams and some other performance upgrades. Axles are the most important thing in a offroad vehicle cuz most of the time those are the weakest point. So a 8 bolt would be a nice strong axle, would advise to not cheap out on axles. Rear one would be solid axle i suppose and the front one would be a independent suspension. Th400 trans would be absolutely fine.
Vasily i would check out chevy 1/2 ton. Truck spindles and brakes . They have plenty of options and upgrades they are affordable and will fit your build .

1/2-3/4 ton Chevy front components with manual lockers.Since you aren't competing and using a solid 1-ton axle front and rear. 17" beadlock wheels and 38-40" tires are recommended for Many rock climbing trails, and require 40" at some too. Cage is looking Solid !
graduating to bigger and better stuff, your welding looks so much better than when i started watching you, you could legit go work as a fabricator for a motor sports company no issues!!
When you make brackets next time prep your edges get the plasma crap off the cut edge and milscale off of the surface it will make your welds stronger and look better. Good start
with the weight of the thing, you dont need big brakes. there are plenty of performance options for 13" rims that stop race cars weighing closer to 2000lbs, so 15s with decent brakes is more than enough. its probably more a case of whats the best cost, bigger brakes cost more as well as bigger tyres, especially if you're going to go through them quickly
For a trophy truck... think beefy over light weight build.... otherwise you will break it every time you take it out. You're not competing so go for strength over lightweight. It takes a big team and alot of money to get the right balance between light weight and strength for competition.
Looking promising i like how you go with real horsepower and full size unlike rather b weldings creations,but still on hubs and 4wheel options he might be able to give you some options,just dont go chain driven thats his downfalls.but a full floating 4link outback should work good on this rig just like the rock bouncers of deep southern boys rigs are.i will be glued to see finished project for certain.snooky pa.❤😂❤❤😂
I like how the cage is coming.. The roof looks plenty strong.. I love how you have 6 bar sin the front windscreen area dedicated to keep the roof on. Speaking of the windshield.. How do you plan to do a windshield, and if so.. How? Lexan, acrylic, or steal the windshield and metal around it from another car? I feel like the rolling inertia on 17s will be horrible..The bigger the rim is, the worse it will get.. But the stopping power on something as big as a 15 will allow will be horrible.. Especially since you're 33-inch tires, you need to lock up. Split the difference and go 16, unless you can actually find some dirt racing specific 6 or 8 piston brake calipers. I don't know if dirt will have much effect on this part, or if you need a brake caliper specific to this application.. But this is as much a learning opportunity for me, so it's more of a question than anything else. Also, another though on braking it maybe 2 sets of calipers per wheel if a set of calipers with on 4 pistons is not doing it.. But that's more of a drifter car thing... do you want to be able to lock up any wheels while running over trophies in your Trophy truck? Last 10-15 minute videos are fine.. It's a lot easier on me to watch short video then big long ones I have to maybe stop while doing work. Plus, your focus as a content creator is to put out regular videos.... It's been said the TH-cam algorithm will reward you more for maintain a regular schedule rather than just dumping out videos.. (though longer videos will also pay more.. So anything that lets you quickly make content is best. The best thing you can do for yourself though is to try to run a backlog and then release the videos as needed. With a backlog, you can give yourself more time to work on projects, and if you have a few weeks when you might be not able to work on videos, or even take a vacation.. You can let your backlog cover you.

Drag cars run 15 inch wheels and alot of them go 200mph in the quarter. 15 inch rims are the best option for this truck. 4 wheel disk brakes in 15 inch wheels will be more than enough to stop this truck reliablely
Or new hilux land cruiser/prado outside US if you can wait for shipping. The tacoma hubs could answer your braking question too because tundra WL calipers bolt onto tacoma hubs & stop incredibly, incredibly well. Unbelievably well.

A good rule of thumb is rim diameter to be half of tire height, i.e 17 inch rim for a 34 inch tire
Maybe it’s an idea to get inboard brakes, that way to don’t have to compromise braking performance, and have the 15 inch wheels
Run 17s because you get more tire options and the 97-03 Ford f150 for hubs
