    All the way around, you're still gonna have to cut. That's a no matter what. Probably have to hammer the pinch weld and might need a CMC. I have metaltech CMC plates that im not gonna use.

    I have 255/75 and other than plastic trimming they’re good to go with spacers

    If you want to run bigger tires at some point and wheel even a little, CMC and whatnot is well worth it. I put it off for as long as I could, but finally did it and was glad I did.

    Coastal DIY with dual swingout. Looking forward to getting it glued together and hoping to add in some step indents on the side for roof access...

    Oh, if anyone with the non-nav type controls has issues with some of the buttons needing long presses to actually do something, I took mine apart the other week and cleaned the old lithium off, used a little contact cleaner on the button contacts that were having issues and it works perfectly now.

    The button contacts themselves have some super weak rubber caps over the top that I guess bridge the contacts themselves. They are a pain to get off and an extreme pain to mount back in place. You’d need a dental pick or similar tool and have to be careful not to tear said rubber “caps”.
