For info I have a 2011 3.8l jk unlimited sport. Will be putting arb front bar and uneek rack too.
I'm running the AEV 2.5" XT with stock rims - no problems, no spacers needed.

Were you able to get it engineered with that offset and the tyre slightly poking out of the guards? Nice work! What did the engineering cost if you don't mind me asking?

I'm guessing the lift was engineered, not the wheel/tyre combo. If I'm wrong, I'd love to know who the engineer is and if he'd consider moving to my state and setting up shop.

Local tyre store says Kanati Trail Hogs are about 4 weeks away still and are going to be getting some in for display when they arrive. Anyone got a reason why I shouldn't go these in 285 70 17 on my JKU. Would assume they are made on the same carcass as the Mud Hogs, so 10PR, 3 ply rated side wall. E load 123/120. With a claimed 32.8" diameter compared to the Mud Hogs 33" diameter. Tread depth is 1/32 less than the Mud Hogs. Tread pattern should wear better and also maintain a quieter ride longer should it not?

57lb /26kg in weight and Q Speed rating. How does this compare to others?



Also can anyone confirm wheel nut thread? ebay searching for wrangler wheel nuts comes up with both 12 1.5mm and 1/2" 20tpi.
