Very little. With the front sway bar disconnected and at full flex the tires just barely touch the top inside edge of the front flares. So far it has not been enough for me to worry about.

Can you tell me what lugs you used, and are those rims hub-centric or did you use hub centering rings to center them?

Angryitch,

How does this ride on the street and freeway for daily driving? Does it want to wonder a bit, feel sloppy at all?

Great looking rig by the way!

I just mounted cragar 15" soft 8s with 33X12.5 Toyo MTs. Looks awsome and rides great. I am also doing a 2" BB this weekend and plan to take some pics after. I will post the pics on this thread when done.

Runs great at any speed on any surface. I had to set the tire pressure at about 24psi though. Anything higher and it was darty...

I just got these (Ion 170 - 15x8 - 3.5" backspacing.) I'm trying to decide whether to powder coat them black (including the rings) and leave the bead lock bolts chrome, or just mount them up as-is. Suggestions? Another option would be paint the beadlock rings the same color as my Jeep (Red Rock) and leave the wheels polished.
