Body Damage is Cool

Keep in mind the average 35" tire in actuality measures 34.6"-34.8". The 35x12.5 LTBs measure 35.2" close to a half inch bigger than most 35"s.

Sweet unh <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I have the 3"BL and maxed t-bars and im sure they will fit in the front its more less the back that concerns me cause theres aint much to cut near the rear doors.

Getting the Wheeling Fever

I have 35x12.5x15 dunlop mudrovers w/ a 3" body lift and no t-bar crank (just haven't put all the weight on the front to do it yet) and I have no clearance issues, though I have relocated my front bumper for winch, but no fender trimming at all. btw my vehicle is gen I v6

Here's with no body lift, front tires rubbed when turning

They will work for the most part. I once put on some 35x16.50 Boggers on my Raider with only a 2in body lift, no crank. They fit other than the width.

I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

My next set of tires will be Q78s (35.5x11), so I will be pushing the limits with the 2" Body lift and the t-bar crank. Q78s being a small 36" or a large 35" will be fun. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Only a 2" BL on mine but you can get an idea what it will look like. Trimmed the front bumpers a bit to get them to fit.

Replaced the bumpers and no more worries about trimming.

They do rub slightly up front when the suspension is compressed and i'm turning (forget if to the right or left) but this only happens very infrequently.
