I used the RR 1" coil spacers and a 2" Masterkit1 bodylift.
Yeah, I like the color too :)

how's it on the road and where's it rubbing?  I was thinking 265/75/16 or bigger may be  ::)  I would guess with my 3" sup. lift and 2" body lift.  I should be able to fit more tire may need some wheel spacers?  >:(

I'll take a pic of where it's rubbing when I get home later today. It rides fine on the road, well like an agressive AT tire. With your lift you should definately be able to run this size tire without rubbing, just nedd some 1" spacers.

Hmm, Not sure to tell you the truth, I'll check when I get home to see. Now I'm really curious, as this might explain as to why it's rubbing the firewall after I already trimmed the fender.

looks great! that lift height and tire size is exaxtly what i am looking for! Can you take pics of key install points? like where the body mounts are, bumper brackets, suspension, etc.???? This would help me tremendously! And i will return the favor when i do my install by taking pics :)
