anyone have some 35s i could borrow to test fit?
« on: April 23, 2008, 03:08:22 PM »
so i have my lift finished on the grand, and I was wondering if anyone had a set of 35s kicking around on jeep rims (like, maybe someone has winter tires kicking around?) that i could borrow for a couple hours this weekend to test fit, see if they'll fit on my grand now.  i think i know where i'll have to cut on the rear which is ok, but i kind of need to flex it out up front, see how close it'll be to the inner fend and stuff........
just throwing it out there, thanks guys!

i added spacers and adjustable upper control arms, as well as longer brake lines and longer shocks (and extended bumpstops)  so i'm runnin all adjustable in the rear and adjustable uppers in front, as well as adj. track bars front and rear.  i just want to throw a set on first to make sure they will work before i swap/sell my 33s.  will post pics maybe later

I'm running 35 inch BFG Ats right now.
if you have the same bolt pattern as my JK we could swap them out quick if you want

shoot. i think the JK bolt pattern is different like my WJ, with the 5.5 pattern in stead of the 4.5.  thanks though!

I just moved to 37's on my TJ so I have a couple sets of 35x12.5 Trxus MT's on black steel rims (one set of 8" wide rims and a set of 10").  You're more than welcome to borrow them for a few hours... heck if you want to buy the set mounted on 8" wide rims I'll give you a good deal.
