Rim Size? -----16x7

Backspacing? -----4.5"

Offset? -----zero



Tire Brand? -----Interco Trxus MT's

Tire Size? -----265/75R16

Issues (problems) with the setup? -----Need over 3" of lift,major trimming F/R bumbers(stock plastic),pound down pinchwelds a must,trimming rear flares a must for full flex,need 4.10 gears at a min,stop being stupid with the skinny pedal,and extended bumpstops a must.Having aftermarket F/R bumbers help with clearence issues.

The biggest problem is the need to go bigger and that cost big $$$$ to do(SFA).

Rim Size? -------------15 x 7

Backspacing? --------3.5in

Offset? ---------------zero



Tire Brand? ----------Mickey Thompson MTZ

Tire Size? ------------31/10.5/15

Issues (problems) with the setup? - Gee, where does one start

1/ - Big Lift 3.5 to 4inches ( I have custom rear coils and extra long travel shockies, and in the front OME heavy duty coils with a clevis lift )

2/- Big bumpstops in the rear, just about to put big ones in the front, but, not really experiencing difficulties there

3/- I have ARB Front bar, so no issue there, did the usual bashing down the pinch welds I still get some contact where the pich was but not really bad so I'm not concerned about it, also in the rear I have trimmed the rear plastic inner flares, and put in big bumpstops.

4/- I am currently about to instal 4.10 gears, but, is running acceptably with the standard 3.73's

Rim Brand? Jeep Wrangler Moabs

Rim Size? 16X8"

Backspacing? 5"

Tire Brand? Goodyear Wrangler Silent Armor

Tire Size? 245/75R16 Load C

Tire type? All Terrain

Issues (problems) with the setup?

Needed Frankenlift II Premium lift with OME HD springs, struts, and long travel shocks.

Needed Al's upper control arms for alignment and to eliminate upper ball joint contact.

Needed to trim plastic fender well under fog lamp doors.

Used the little balancing beads to get the tires balanced.

4.10 gears offset the power loss from the bigger heavier tires.

Works extremely well as setup now.
