    Mine are wearing evenly they are just a pain to keep balanced (might be the rims too or a combination of) the last time I had to stop at the tire shop the guy just looked and me and said "Again?" :eek: Don't get me wrong...I love them!

    Added spacers from Toytec to my OME setup. I've been running 883s which have been great. But since adding armor, budbuilts, and a winch... it lost about an inch and the tire rubbing had become more frequent. The spacers gave me back a full 1"! So far so good on the rubbing issue!

    Before and after

    P1030786_51ed5d7dd705c2a5f7f6fc665d5a793517b5360b.jpg

    Also mashed my new Budbuilts on my first trail run with them. :rolleyes:
    The belly pan is contacting the transfer case and causing a lot of vibration. Anyone planning on installing these should definitely have the belly pan reinforced.

    Lost one of my mud flaps to a rock the other day, so I removed the other one today as well
