Fuel 17" Trophy Wheels and 35" BFG KM2's

Got it all like this from the dealer, Earnhardt's in Gilbert, AZ. I figured I would save the Hemi dream build for the next one, hehe.

Looks awesome!! can i request a few pics and maybe a measurement or two? If so, would you mind taking a pic of where your rock rail meets the rear tire, I'm trying to see what kind of clearance you have, also would you mind measuring from the ground to the bottom of your rock rail? I'm thinking we have the same lift kit (trying to identify what the dealer put on mine)

I will just apologize now for crappy iPhone 5 pix.

Bottom of rock rail is 22" high. (sideways pic?)

Random front suspension shot.

Rock rail clearance, about 1". Not good.

The pinch seam on the newer JKs comes trimmed from the factory. However the rock rail does need a little trim. This is very easy to do. Just remove the rails from the Jeep, pop the plastic caps off the rail, mark how much you want to trim and then cut off with a side grinder, band saw or whatever you have available. Reinstall the end caps, rails and ride on!
