Nice, I saw your thread on CF. Let us know how it turns out. My goal is to go 35" tires too in a couple years, it may come sooner, as my factory 18" wheels are corroded from years of salt/rust so I may downsize to 17" wheels with 35" tires. I've already had to trim my front fenders for 33" tires. I'm down to cut more off no problem. I'll be attempting all this all on a 2" suspension lift with no body lift. Just major cutting of my fenders.

Plenty of R51s being parted out nowadays that if I ever needed a pair of uncut fenders, off to the classified sections or junk yard I go.

Nice. Could you have gone with the monster 325/85/16 with your amount of lift? Tire would be very heavy though

Looks hard core.
Will you take it on an overlanding trip sometime?
Or some serious off-roading?

Looks great man.

What's your front caster? That could affect your steering.
