Thanks. Frozen Gray

The front bumper has a few pending offers on the , but not sold yet Not pushing extremely hard. If it happens than cool. If not then I'll just proceed with my planned mod. Just would suck to chop up a perfectly good OEM front.

Nice Set up!

What type and size wheels you have on them?

Yea, but only because my previous setup required my fenders to be rolled and pulled. I'm currently running 12mm in the front and 20 in the rear. I'm also running 9.5'' F&R wheels.

Gotcha so its 9.5+20 all the way around. added a 8mm spacer only up front for +20-8mm = 12mm so it fills the pulled fenders. makes sense!

I wonder if stock fenders would clear the 9.5 +20 upfront maybe a slight a tire stretch?

What about the tires, they have nice round side wall on them, what kind of tires are they?

Definitely will rub with the 9.5 up front, not sure how much tho.

tires are just some cheapie achilles brand tires but I actually like them a lot. The fronts are in fact stretched slightly with a 245 35 on the 9.5. (helps to clear) Kinda makes me laugh how I was running a 255 on a 11.5 on my DPE's
