Jeep alone fits with plenty of room it fits with the jack with about 2" to spare to the door frame and 1" to the rubber seal trim. We put the rears on in the garage because it was raining and when I backed out to do the fronts my buddy yelled to slow down because we both forgot about the Jack. Glad I had the clearance or it wold have gotten ugly.

Thanks guys for the feedback
One other item I forgot to note is I used the Daystar bump stops at full size with the Mopar tire mount and with the 4.5" BS wheel (17 X 9) and the 35 it gives it a perfect fit. Snug up against the tire and there is not one bit of movement or rattle. The factory bump stops came no where near the tire. They may not be needed but I think they sure help keep any rattles and movement down.
Also got black lug nuts with the package from DTD and they look good with the wheels.
Nagulator's shop will be installing the EVO gussets on Tuesday for extra strength.

Bumper is super simple but the tire mount to a little more time. Bolting it up was not to bad but you need to really fine tune it so the spring pin drops in smoothly. New 3rd Brake light was very easy to get mounted and wired.
Total time was about 2.5 hours.
