Good work, did you go for HUGE, or moderate lift???


Give us the measurements from hub centre to under the flares afterwards so as we can see how big it is..

it was around the 470mm mark before hand and on advice should be around the 550mm afterwards. so all up around 80mm (around 3inches) which is pretty big but not crazy big..

:P

BTW how do you accomodate the speedo variation when going from 235/70/16 to 245/75/16
