If more clearance was made to the arches where they currently touch would those tyres then fit OK or do the look like they would touch else where as well before you reach the limits of suspension travel?

My arch and suspension modifications are different to yours, but with 34" swampers I had more problem with of a problem rubbing on the inner rear wheel arches, rather than the outer arches.

Mr Alford:
if u wana save money get the much harder compound insa turbo special tracks that i have on mine i paid £282 for 4 from mail order 4x4 these are 33's

Jake

the disco looks so good with those 35s on - surely with the know how at your gaff there will be a way to 'engineer' them on?!  ;)

Gav_T:
If you are going for the kl71's then i would still get the 35's. From what i have read they are undersized a bit and they wont have the tread depth of the simex's either so this will help more.

Failing that just put a inch's worth of body lift on? You have seemed like you have been aiming to get 35's on for a while now so dont give up just yet!

Gavin.

Jake:
I've been thinking about a body lift but i dont want to have to redesign the front bumper/steering guard (because they'd look rubbish with a gap)
There is options to redesign the arches, which might include dumping them for the proper Aussie versions and maybe even lift it another 1" using spacers...
