Now do you actually intend to drive over bumps with that combo - or were they just for pix?
(which are very good I might add - they look great)

looks to me as it should work just fine, :lol: :lol: maybe need 40 acres to turn but other than that I say run them, whatever the tires hit will be torn off in a few miles, then no problems. You may need to go to 4.10s though :twisted:

I dont see anywhere where they could possibly rub. 38's may even fit with a tad more clevis lift in the front. :lol:

This things looks awsome. Would like to see what the fenders look like after a trail run :D

i dont think there would be anything to look at on the fenders after a trail run... they wouldnt be there. I'm trying to put a video of it on YouTube but it's taking FOR-EV-ER to load. as soon as it does i'll put a link in my original post to the video. thanks for all the compliments!!!

hahahahahhaha.. sorry to burst your money making idea (it would've worked great) but i should really fess up.

these came off my dad's long armed rubicon.. they only stayed on my jeep long enough to take the video i uploaded and take some pictures. i've been wondering if they would even fit in the wheel wells for a long time so i finally tried 'em on. hahaha.. whats real funny is what my dad's rubi looked like with my girly 32's

I like the low COG stance with the 35's. Only if that set up would actually work. Question why do you have a telephone booth infront of your house? :?

I defintally like it. But it wouldn't work for the offroad world that I am going to put the KJ through. Athough I really like the sound, and color of the 06 rennie!!

Good Job!!

thanks a lot!! the telephone booth.. well.. we ran into it at a yard sale.. and since it's made outta alum. we figured we could drag it home. so up on the roof rack of the KJ it went along with a lot of ratchet straps. i guess we thought it would be a neat yard decoration.. a skeleton goes in it with a orange light to light up for halloween... superman sometimes... santa at x-mas.. and it goes on and on. plus we got it for $50! havnt cleaned it up yet but that's the plan :twisted:

i reallllly wish the 35's would work for daily driving and offroading but that's way outta reach. always nice to dream though :cry:
