    Im really hoping i dont have to trim the fenders for 35s with spindles.. I really wanna keep the flares looking stock. +2 glass would be nice for up front though

    Have you ever seen folks on 35s with just the spindles for 4" lift? i wonder what kinda clearance issues im gonna see

    @ChadsPride perhaps the spindle connoisseur himself could chime in?

    I have not seen that. I forgot you were gonna slap the spindles on it should clear just fine I mean a bracket lift clears 35s you’ll be in the same ballpark height wise.

    Brackets for sure. The spindle lifts are slightly more special due to the extra width they provide.

    Heck yeah! Awesome news. I am hoping most of the plastic trimming i had to do with the 3" lift and 295s will put me in the clear with spindles and 35s
