Hell yea, I'm buying mine next month. But man, with full fenders, the 35s look right. I think my 35s will look small with flats.

I wanted to keep the factor fenders on for now, prob will run them until these tires wear out then upgrade to 37s with flats.

Thats a lot of axle shift for so little flex, is that the kit that has only the lower arms? Are those 10" travel shocks?

The 3.5" Mid Arm Flex has front and rear lower control arms, a rear track bar bracket, and a front adjustable track bar.

what size tires are those. Jeep looks good. I am wanting to use my stockers for trail use and put 35's or 37s on them.
