Sweeeet! He's gonna do it first, so I don't hafta!

I wish you success, because I am NEXT on the chopping block. Well, my checkbook is the one on the chopping block, technically...

So your getting the same rim or same dimensions?

Yeah, I just got my AMEX bill in the mail, it includes the rims, the tires AND the cost of moving from Chicago to Reno...

Talk about setting me back.

I think I'll go with Bart's find: the Teflon-coated Chambers. I may try to squeeze some 265/70R 16 Yokohamas on them. Probably need to trim, or maybe change my shocks and crank the torsion bars up an inch...after which I'd still probably have to trim!!!

Any thoughts, folks?

Alright its done and they look great. I put them in 265/75/16 all terrian tires. And guess what? I have to crank the torsion bars so I dont rub. I have already trimmed the cladding a bit, but they rub on the back wall of the front fender. I am planning on lifting the whole thing this weekend; just got the OME 912's in the mail yesterday but till then Im cranking the bars a bit tonight.

first thing first.
1.) These do not stick out much at all, actually less than my previous set up. REPEAT...THEY DO NOT STICK WAY OUT like some said


I will repost again with pics and more info, I am stuck at work thinking about how I want to lift and drive it NOW.

Nice! POST PICS! POST PICS! POST PICS!

The more neg. offset & taller profile of the tires is why they rub the rear of the fenderwell...
The only cure I'm aware of, outside of adjusting the steering stops & increasing your min. turning radius, is a B F H adjustment where contact is being made, along with some more trimming.

B F H = Big Fat Hammer?!?

Close enough.. that's the PG version.
