I thought about the 25mm myslf but then figurede if it compresses enough to catch it could still rip a guard off if it happened. I'm pretty wrapped actually in the performance, handling and ride of the 50mm spring spacers and bumpstop extensions, just need to organise longer brakelines and shocks this week.

I've seen a pic of your jk and it looks good. but the thing i don't want is too much of a clearance between the tyre and the guard i like how the gap for the factory 32" tyres and the guards.

But i guess you can't have everything ey


I guess its personal taste. I really like the extra space between the tyre and the guard, shows off the nice bright yellow OME shocks.

the 2" OME kit on mine ended up measuring more like 4". Heavy springs also.
