Fits perfect with 35" tires. 37" tires will fit as well.

The JKU it's mounted on in the photo has a 3" Full-Traction Premium Plus suspension & 35" Goodyear Kevlar Tires. Wheeled all week in Moab @ Easter Jeep Safari 2010 (Posion Spider Mesa, Green Day Area BFE, Moab Rim, Steel Bender etc.) with no rubbing issues at all.

We have not re-shot this bumper.

So we are clear.......

Nothing has changed on this bumper other then the welds on the upper end caps. The production unit will not have visible welds. That is the only difference.

I have to agree with some of the others that this thing has appeal problems. The hoop looks too big and too perpendicular to the rest of the bumper. The winch looks like it was just tossed on to the top of it without much planning and the fairlead attachments may be functional but look like an afterthought. Sorry to be so harsh Hanson, I normally like there stuff
