I like the tread pattern left in the snow.

I'm wantin' to see pics of the new tube flares when they're done.

If they look good, I may just try to have a set made locally for me. :mrgreen:

Waiting for the left rear pictures
Don't think anyone said it could not be done but rather would like to see what you tore off doing it,
Have seen personally what 33s will tear off/hit/rub on a "real trail"
Also I know where my 32s hit and how much room is in the rear to flex, unless you run 3 inches or more of bumpstops which you may have

What do you do if you get a flat...lol.

KJWildman · **Posted:** Fri Dec 31, 2010 12:58 am

Still cool tho'

Here's the side everyone wants to see with the 33's :lol:

KJ_WHEELER_2010 · **Posted:** Sat Jan 01, 2011 12:48 pm

Love the bright red :pepper:

and the fact that your running 33s. How much trouble was it to remove the front fenders? Is it possible to take off the plastic flare over the rear tires?

ah maybe look at the photo of Larrys right above, still have lots of metal that you can get rid of some but not all for more flex

KJ_WHEELER_2010 · **Posted:** Sat Jan 01, 2011 2:44 pm

Oh ya, I didnt even notice that. hhmmm Maybe I'll just do the front of mine when I get back. I like how it looks.

Can you post up a vid of cranking the wheel to one side and driving in reverse? I wanna hear the fun noises :mrgreen:

RED_KJ_666 · **Posted:** Sun Jan 02, 2011 1:59 pm

I'll put up 360 degree full flex shots in the next couple of days I can't find my driver side shots so I'll go take more. My solution to KJWildmans issue was 3" bumptops

the tire hits the front back and top of the rear wheel well just enough to remove the paint at this point my Y-Link is what is limiting all rear flex it now hits the body hard. I can drive why do you ever need to go fast in reverse at full lock? I'm good at picking my lines and the people I wheel with all pretty much all run 4" lifts on TJ's Xj's and YJ's I have never been in a position where the 33's have hurt the ability of my Liberty. The 33's gave it a whole new level of capability. They aren't for everyone but it works if you think out what you are doing before you do it.

I deff agree :lol:

tommudd · **Posted:** Sun Jan 02, 2011 2:17 pm

Heck I had to go with 3 inches of bumpstop with my little :wink:

32s
heres mine with two inches of bumpstop, testing before I went down to "The Farm"

Pro Comp X-Terrain 33x12.5-15 Pro Comp Lies.... Actual Measurement 32.50x11.5 with no weight mounted and full of air (18lbs) on the rim. I challenge you to find a tire that measures up to advertised height. I've only ever seen 2 Brands that stick to it TSL which usually come Bigger than advertised, and General Tire with the new GRABBER Red Letter tire which are also larger. With the Offset 15" rims my tires hit further out on the Flair at the top.

tommudd · **Posted:** Sun Jan 02, 2011 2:40 pm

Agree with the tire height
almost all if they say 32 its 31.5 to 31.7 or so same as 31s most are 29.7 or so actually
The 8 inch Moabs set mine out further as well making more contact, wish the Moabs were 7 inches wide and 4 inch backspacing
