Also side note....Walmart is rediculously cheap on tires. I was shocked they were right with tire rack, but you get free shipping to your front door. Ordered late Sunday night showed up at 5pm today.

Depending on your state, you may need wider flares
What flat flares are you running? They look like they give some good coverage. How wide are they?Awesome Jeep! I am kind of partial to silver Rubi's though.
The day I bought it.

So you decided on KM2s instead of KO2s?
Yes. I went back and forth with it, and decided that's what I wanted to go with. A few of my buddies have KM2s so I know how they ride on road. I think they are going to look great mounted upSo you decided on KM2s instead of KO2s?
I had them (285/75-17) on a previously owned JKR, and they were very good tires.Yes. I went back and forth with it, and decided that's what I wanted to go with. A few of my buddies have KM2s so I know how they ride on road. I think they are going to look great mounted up
Hey, from your pics it looks like some cutting, drilling and welding might be needed. Is that right? Also, for the front, do you remove the factory fender? If so, do you have to find a place to re-mount all that stuff in the engine bay? If so, was that difficult? Also, are you getting increased wheel well for larger tires? Thanks in advance...Black Widow Gear 5" fenders. They give me just about perfect coverage.

Have a look through my build thread for details on the fenders (easier than explaining here).

Ha! I liked half the posts in your Build thread while you were doing the fenders, et al. I guess if you like it once it sticks and you like it again. Nice work again!Have a look through my build thread for details on the fenders (easier than explaining here). My 05 Rubi build and picture thread
Yes, there is a bit more room for larger tires, and there is cutting required for the front fenders. The inner fenders are not touched, so nothing has to be relocated.
Awwww really, now you tell me and there's me trying to be helpful and looking for 20 inch flares on EBayIt was a joke based on your pic. Guess it didn't work
