When I say accross town, I mean about 60 miles to town. I live quite a ways from the bigger city. Wheel and tire shop is here and lift shop is a little over an hour away.

Ill just have to figure out a way to get the tires and wheels to the shop.

Just take off the top, fold down the seats, and start piling up the tires in the back. Make sure you strap them down. But then again, you may have rubbing issues this way..... you'll be driving a low rider.

What backspacing are you running on your WE beadlocks? It looks like it has a pretty good stance.
