On stock rim with no lift, I can only see changing to flat fender plus wheel spacer (which is not suggested) would be the only way.

They measure 33.8" at 32psi and just over 11.5" wide, they need back spacing as they rub big time!

$700 just for the grab handles?! From memory, I got mine from Sbr a while ago for around the $200 mark...

Tell me about it, the JKU has a few gouges out of the rear panel paint work where the missus has dropped her half of the hardtop. Would love a hoist setup up to replace my bunnings dolly, but I'm skint.

From memory, the dynabolts and eyelets cost me under $20 and 2 ratchet straps were $47 so it can be done on the cheap. The wood I had laying around.

I wouldn't be without it now.

I purchased mine in the states and had them shipped (shipping doubled the price)!
