G'Day,

Ordered 235x75 15's for my jimny. Expect them to arrive next week sometime.

The rims are dynamic 15x7's with -12 offset.

Have TD 80mm spring/shocks, ARB bar and removed sway bar.

What do I expect to trim/cut/grind to make them fit ?

Cheers

Guy

I took about 15mm off both sides of my ARB bar to stop them rubbing, the guards still rub a bit but if you get the jimny bits radius arms itle stop it from happening.


That's pretty much it. Likewise for the ORA radius arms. Moves the axle forward by about 20mm

Axle is back close to it's original stocko position. All seems to be well thought out.

I just bought the front pair and they are 4.5" lift version. I didn't feel that the rears were necessary but now that I've felt the difference in my front spring behaviour (they are now straight up instead of curved and only really using one side of the spring) I may eventually get some rears.
