    Optimal offset and wheel spacing

    Thanks for posting these pics. I'm about to upgrade to the same setup (31x10.5R15's on a 3.75BS wheel), but I'm a bit nervous about handling/steering with the extra width. Questions: 1) Did you find the factory flairs to be just too little coverage with the 3.75BS and 10.5" combination? 2)...

    31" tires on Canyons? Rubbing / clearance issues?

    Hey thanks @EJD . Your suggestion caused me to google steering stop adjustments...which brought me back to this forum and this great thread from @Chris: https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/how-to-adjust-the-steering-stops-on-your-tj.3230/ Question answered! Solution in hand! This forum rocks!

    31" tires on Canyons? Rubbing / clearance issues?

    Question: Can you run 31x10.5R15s on canyons with no lift or spacers on a stock TJ? Off Road Warehouse thought I’d need spacers but weren’t positive. I’d like to avoid using spacers. Sorry for the (likely) repeat question, I’ve looked around but can’t find the answer. Thanks everyone?

    Thanks! The replacement parts of course will happen if needed - will test them next week hopefully. The 3.07 is what is keeping me at 31. Getting junk yard SE axles or regearing may be in my future, but not till I see just how slow she is on the road (reports vary). Thanks as well for the...

    Hi everyone, new member here, and I finally have my first Jeep after wanting one for decades!!! Thanks to everyone for this amazing forum. I've spent a good amount of time reading a lot of the threads about beginner guides and low/moderate lifts (thanks @Chris , @StG58 and others). I don’t...
