    I'm on a 3inch lift and just fit 285s with f5s with 4.5 bs. I off-road often and need to be able to stuff the tire. What should I expect to have to trim? Will be doing a CMC this weekend. Wondering about the wheel well liners or actual fenders.

    Looks awesome. You will hit on the front fenders probably infront and behind the tires cmc might not be needed.

    I lost track thousands of dollars ago.
    Pull the shock, stuff the tire to the bumps, turn lock to lock trim anything it hits that's the proper way to clear at full stuff.

    Sureeeee... that’s the best way to do it, no argument there. But say that one doesn’t have floor jack, jack stands, and 2 hours time anddddddd... that one knows half the guys on here with suspension are at 2”-2.75” and running the same size tires (285s). One may have a dremel super handy that could complete job quickly. Thanks in advance anyone out there

    Weird! My neighbor is running the same size but Falken AT3’s, King’s, and a camburg UCA. We figured the geometry/UCA was the reason he had no rub and that I did (icon stage 2= no UCA). Maybe BFGs are just a little beefier tire...?

    Yeah idk what happened as the pro comp MTRs were wider, might be because of the extra travel but I'm not sure
