BFG Muds installed

Well I just got my 35X12.5R18 in on Monday and had them installed today. Only had to wait 35 days to get them but well worth it. I put them on the factory rims and holy cow it makes a big difference with the autospring on. It doesnt rub on any of the plastic just the upper control arm at full lock but no big deal. I just received my add-a-leaf so that will be on this weekend. More pics in my gallery

no big deal?! Why wouldn't that concern you? Anyway, it does look real nice! I'd love to see the pictures when you add the skyjacker lift. Also, what width tire did you go with again on stock rims?

they are 12.5in wide. the factory rim is only 7.5in wide. BFG recomends a 8.5in wide rim for the min. The stock tires were 10in wide so not that bigger. I have drove around for about an hour trying different things and have had no problem and loving the look. I am never at full lock unless at idle speed (like in a parking lot), I havent any problems at normal speeds

man that's only with a leveling kit? i thought it was lifted when i first looked at it. and with stock wheels too! i think i know what my next tires will be now. i've already got the leveled look, now just 35s!! i'll probably go with the A/T though, not really that much into hardcore offroading.
