From what my buddy says it rubs at 3/4 turn. I am not there to look and see as i am deployed out to sea. But return in August. |

Awesome choice. The tires are sweet. They do sling mud like a mother, crawl over any rock you put in front of it, and they perform really well on the streets for such an aggressive tire. Couldn't be happier with mine.

Yep those Trxus MT's are good tires,just don't air down past 10psi without beadlocks,they don't like that low of psi without being locked to the rim. |

Do you have spacers on there or is all of that in the backspacing? Rescu2000 |

Looking at the hubs through the rims it appears as if there are spacers behind there. Looks awesome by the way!! |

Front View 
the backspacing is between 3.45 and 4, i cant remember. I think it still has my 1.5 spacers on too, I can't confirm as i am deployed to the Gulf. |

Looks awesome but if those spacers are still on I would take them off for sure. You will probably need some extended bumpstops too. |

ok heres the thing- you do not need and spacers kit on the 15x8 cragar wheels if you have a 4" BS. they will clear the calipers. trust me on this. these are the rims that i have. and if you have them on, as stated before, take them off. i know you cant personally, but have someone do it. you will rip your studs off, if not strip them and you dont want that. also i have noticed that with the same lift that everyone else has, and with my tires set up as being 31-11.50-15, i have some stupid wheel gap between the tires and flares. up and down is what im talking about. everyone here must have shorter springs or someting but it seems to me that my KJ sits alot higher then most. someone please correct me if i am wrong (by photo comparison), but i dont think i am. as i have done the comp myself in the last few days. if you guys need more pics of a level side view, please lt me know and it'll happen. i'll post them here and you guys can figure it out. |
