Just curious how far the duratracs bulge past the pintlers. This will tell me if I can get away with the pintlers with a 25mm offset.

I don't have duratracs but have nitto mud grapplers 37" 13.5 " and they bulge a bit but are fine to me.

That looks nice. Thanks.

Contrary to what AEV says about the backspace(4.7") it is actually 5.2" assuming their rim lip is the same thickness as the stock ones. I doubt like hell it's .5" thinner.

I'm actually thinking about the pintler with the 25mm offset. It has a 5.8" BS. I'm thinking that might be just enough to run a tire that is 12.5" wide.

Then again I might just say the hell with it and go with the 10mm offset and see how long I can go without a ticket. I don't really want to have to put pocket fenders on. I'm not a big fan of them.

FYI: I love your flat fenders. Too bad they don't come 1.3" wider
