As stated, they should at least be offered as a factory installed option.

Ummm.. Sure it'll breath higher, but what you gonna do about the rest of those electrical parts that don't dig being under water.. Alternator, fuse box, batteries, etc...

I am particularly impressed by the seemingly airtight cabin on the H3. Many people comment on how quiet the ride is and I am convinced that it is somewhat close to being water tight from the bottom. I have not submerged mine up to the doors yet, except at high speed through a small area. I am sure somebody here has and knows whether or not the water seeps in...

It ain't even close to watertight.. I dipped a rental H3 into a hole a bit to deep, had to be snatched out backwards and ended up with 3 inches of water in the floorboard in less than a minute.. Someguy on here dumped on off into a pond sideways a good while back and the moment he hit water it fried most of the electrical stuff in the truck.. Doors wouldn't unlock, windows wouldn't roll down..
