    Your camber looks off. Did you get an alignment after your lift?

    I'm going to be running the BBS Rd 17's off the FJ. I'm pretty sure the offset on them is going to make me have to cut and box the cab mount. Anyone else running these? ::Edit, Looks like they are 4.75 backspacing and +5 offset. Anyone know if I'll have to cut or not? I might just order some 285's and if I have to cut and box them then I'll do it.

    You can always 3M film the areas behind your wheels. I had it done, but I still run short flaps to minimize throwing debris behind me.

    Might be a good investment if you are running in a lot of loose gravel or stones...
