Id like to see which flares they are if you could pm me.

 

I added 35's to my set up 2 days ago. I will flex it tonight to its max with my hi-lo and see what kind of clearance I have.. some pics. and yes i lifted it, i needed ground clearance.






I think there is room for 37's

 

If you asking on mine, no problems when I trailed alone but I dont rock crawl. It must have rubbed slightly when drove in and out of ditches, but that was bearable, as is running it on the street. Only issues were when its weighed down.

Here's a side shot

 

I have 35's with a 2.5 coil lift from TF with shocks.

I rub on the pinch and the rubi rail....
Flat fenders wont change that...

Gotta cut the rail or remove it

 

That lift recommends running 35's and most people do. I trimmed my rubi rails back 2 inches and cut the pinch seam to match.

 

great thread!!!!

 

I like this idea.

 

I ran no lift and bushwacker flats and didn't rub anything...

 

Was that before or after you added 1" spacers ?

To all on this thread, you will rub with 35" tires and no lift !!! The pinch seam DOES need to the trimmed or bashed clear, and the 35s WILL rub on the rear inside wheelwell frame when the suspension is flexed (deep pot-hole, wheeling off-road), and 35s WILL rub when have passengers and/or heavy gear.

Yes, 35s and no lift does work on smooth roads and only the driver.

There is just no getting away from it. We bought Jeeps to be capable off-road. 35s add to that capability but a 1" or better a 2.5" coil lift IS nescesary with 35s.

Rant over.

 

I ran tf extended rear bumpstops. I was incredibly close to the pinch seam but didn't touch it. The front cleared fine. But you're right, prior to the bumpstops in the rear I was rubbing hard on the inner fender.
