Well i got my Unique 297's from www.discounttires.com they are made by carlile which are the same people that make Cragar's so when my box came they said soft 8's. except i got these for 50bucks a piece. well i got the 245/70/16 with 16x7 they were rubbing in the front on hard turns and front and back depending on the way i turned.I give it to discounttire the guy said to me "hey man do you want them or do you want some street tire in a smaller size" i said well the guys on LOST forum say if i trim the fender liner and pound the pinch weld it'll fit.....the guy goes well we can do that my eyes lit up i said well hell pound away. to get to it he had to remove my liner and i will trim it tomorrow and hopefully get it back on with out removing. i will post up clean pictures when i wash the jeep. BTW i haven't washed it since i got a flat tire 4 months ago. yeah yeah i know 4 months!!! times was rough gas was too darn high lol

Looks good
but have to tell you that you did not have to take the fender liner out to do the pinch weld, most just cut the liner on either side where it sticks out, pound it down/over, heat the liner some and melt it back flat

But its done now so all is good,

Go to the Daystar site and use their dealer locator for your are. Then just start calling around to those shops and see if anyone has one on hand. 4 Wheel Parts got mine in overnight. Ordered at 5:00 pm on Thursday, Picked it up at 11:00 am on Friday. You need P/N KJ09116BK.

ok just ordered day start kit from ALL J and Robbie told me that i didn't need bump stops because the spacer won't let it compress that far anyway he says he has put on plenty day star 2.5's with no extra bump stop.

should be here wednesday!! untill then slow sharp turns
