they really rubbed my bank account !! lol

outside of that they little rub when cornering (better take wide angles)
I would not take them offroad in that configuration (street is fine)

In fact street in that configuration is way better than stock!!! softer on bumps
and globally a smoother ride. I love it. (my pics are crap - i was in a rush - , looks way better life)

I will upgrade with a lift !

WestChester, bloke, what diffs are you running on your 35's? I'm trying to find out what the stocko ones are like mate. I've got a stocko diff at the moment on 33's, trying to get a gauge for how soon I should change over the diffs if I make the move to 35's. Any info lads?

Cheers!

Ozzie how's it hanging me ol' tinker ??? .... No worries at all with 35s, I'm running stock X axles with the tow package 4.10 gears, D30 front, D44 rear, no lockers.

It's a constant nag thinking, budgeting and dreaming of upgraded axles, driveshafts and larger tires, but my set-up runs fine for now. No need to change anything for 35s - there are numerous threads and arguments on the forum on if they can handle 37s.

With stock fenders its very close : With chopped fenders its much better, but I finally convinced myself a lift is needed, a 2.5" Teraflex with coils is sitting in the garage waiting to be installed soon.
I really like your front bumper. What kind of bumper is that.
