thanks for the words of encourgement!! I guess I will have to just drive straight. They are being installed right now! I have read post where that size tire and brand works fine on some stock jeeps. Others say they rub. Maybe is will just have to let the air out

They fit!! and look awesome. I will post pics later. Full lock... slight rub at pinch weld. Alottle grinding would solve that. Not sure If I will get a lift yet. Not needed unless I am doing some wheelin. |

Don't grind the pinch weld off(could have possible unibody seperation problems),simply cut the plastic liner away and hammer it down with a BFH.Then coat it with spray paint or rubberized undercoating. |

Cut the plastic around the pinchweld and pound it over flat, you don't want that pinchweld chewing up your new ties. |
