    okay ppl, i just got some 33x12.5'' tires and some Wheelers Type B rims and love them. Some of you may know that i used to have 1.5'' spacers as well. Well i tried it with the spacers on and it was way to wide...but was cool.

    Anyways i took the spacers off of course as i had 2.5'' oh BS with them on :eek:


    BUTTTTT...now..i am thinking of keeping them and possibly getting some Bushwacker cut outs. But i have a few questions.

    I have looked at the instructions on how to do it and its pretty strait forward, however i am concerned with the OEM fender part. To me it seemed like your trimmed the fenders to make the wells wider. But what about higher?? Since my tires would be so far out there id be worried about flexing and stuffing the tires...would i have to tub them??

    So i don't really need pics of the fenders just on the truck, found plenty of those. But i would still appreciate them. I am more curious of shots from the underside of them too see if i can actually do this lol

    Crazy? A bit yes. But might turn out slick..:cool:

    Thanks fellas

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    I have just about ripped off my front driver side bushwhacker it's flapping in the wind. I don't rub too bad at the top it's more the rear or the flair on the fronts.

    Your running 3.75 BS tho right??

    And how did you manage that?? From the wheel rubbing so hard?? Is that from not trimming enough or just doesn't go back far enough..
