Bigger wheels usually makes it more stable, I find a pickup I like I'll probably run 20's and 33's.
Actually, bigger wheels almost always mean more unsprung weight, which is detrimental to performance in many ways.

And for 4wd's, you want as much tire flex as possible while on uneven/unstable terrain. For example, you air down your tires when 4-wheeling to improve traction, because the tire makes a larger footprint and has more pliability to adjust its shape to the terrain its traversing. Going with larger and larger wheels, while skinnier and skinnier sidewalls on your tires, will hurt your off-road prowess, not improve it.
