Curious.... do you have a pic as well. If anyone has gone bigger (is it possible, even with a
frankie?) then please let me know as well.

Maybe its time for a big booty set of MTR's :twisted:

those tires are nice.... saw another Libby on
here running the trXus.... r they better than MTR's
in your opinion?

I see you run the spare on top..... Can you not open the
glass with your spare back there?

I'm just testing the Trxus out before I commit to a 35" tire for the SFA,so far they are not to bad(the MT/R's are my first choice still).I only put my spare on top because the 265/75 MT/R and a 16x7 steel rim is tipping the scales at 85+lbs and was taking it's toll on my rear swing gate hinges,and yes the rear glass would open no problem with the spare mounted on the swing gate(I didn't enen flip the tire carrier either).

thanks....

looking at all the dents in my muffler.....
(AKA the 5th skid plate)

I think a set of 31.8's would help!

Would give me a couple more inches :-)r :-)r :-)r

Those seem to fit really well, narrow and tall. Any rubbing?

Well, once you trim the lower air dam, and a small bit of the bumper (oh, it's not that bad, and you can only see it if you lay down in front of the jeep), pound the pinchweld, and do a little trimming on the wheel well liner... then you only have to decide if you want to move the washer bottle. I also recomend installing longer bump stops. I would highly recomend these tires & size.

No wheel spacers - you might catch the flairs that way... As for bumpstops, I recomend adding bigger ones. I didn't, and you should have hear the sounds she made when I stuffed the first time :D :shock: :twisted:
