    Thank you man and it was actually pretty easy. Just marked off 2 inches and then cut it with a cut off wheel. For the black plastics fender I used a Dremel to get it as clean as I could. From there I just cut the pinch welds and cleared out more space around the body mounts. Still a lil rub on the bmc only when fully turned in reverse but I only have my castor set forward +2 and would like to take it back in to max it out more

    Yep. I just pulled my front flares back off because of my firing cuts wheeling this past weekend. Got to where I barely rub the cab mount (after one chop) in reverse and turning for DD.... Go wheeling and I brought cutting tools to trim my fender flares. Flares are cut farther back than the fenders and now it starts again lol. :rofl:

Love it hahaha... I made the jump to 315/70/17 Milestar Patagonia MT a few weeks ago wrapped around 17” relations race wheels RR4, and just threw on 5.29 nitros over veterans day weekend... i have an aggressive CMC and castor set to 3.5. I’m running an Icon stage 4 setup with #700 coils. In the street I just barely rub my sway bar at full lock... going to trim the fenders this weekend before I hit the trails the following weekend...

    I feel like 35’s just take constant tweaking until you get them just right (referring to cutting, possibly spacers, alignment). E5035667-55AD-4E01-B7C2-A306A2D71AE6.jpg9DFB9D2A-0FD8-4A38-A6CB-ABBEE25EF48C.jpg

    Bolt Pattern:6 x 5.5
    Offset (mm):0

    You will rub your frame. I had 4.3” backspacing on my old wheels and did. You’ll be about .25” worse

    Thanks. Trying to find wheels with 3.5-4" BS seems to be a pain. All I have really found are SCS rays or Pro Comp 69s.

    I have Ray10s that are 17x8.5 et -10 which is 4.3" backspacing. After a cab mount relocation and tons of trimming/hammering my 315s now clear the body and cab mount but they rub on the frame. Im totally fine with this, they really only rub at full lock and even then its just barely. Ill take that compared to the amount they rubbed before all the cutting ha!

    Ray 10s are perfect. That’s what I had before. 3.5 BS is much harder to fit and I’ve had to clearance way more since switching
