hey guys so having a bit of trouble trying to get around my spare wheel carrier. as my bighorns of the little jimny are a little to wide for the back tailgate.. has anybody manufactured or re- designed something to eliminate this problem? if so let me know any info would be great . |

a 2" wheel spacer would do the trick... one of the ones that takes up the old studs and has new ones on it. |

yes thats what im thinking ... was just cutious at to whats other people have done etc. ideally ide love to have it all removed from the back tailgate, get it all smothened out. and just run the spare on the roof. but i dont have the money to get body work like that done

hat size tyre are you running?? i have 30s and with the offset of the rim it doesnt hit.. mind you the offset of that rim is more then the other 4 on the car.. check zukenutters build.. he cut and shut the original to move the tyre up so as not to hit on the bumper.. you could also do similar to move out |

2" wheel spacer will work. I have 235's on -13 15x7 rims with heaps of clearance. |

I have a 80mm lift, my tyres did rub on the front but cus your only running 15x6's with o off set they shouldn't rub, but you may want to get rims with some descent off set, if your you are getting the 4.5" kit. kemlar wrote: ok I put the 5 inch lift back on the jimny and borrowed a mates huge offset rims and 31s. I'll post some pics tomorrow. It looks awesome with the rims and 31s. Kinda like ORA but not as big tyres. Still not sure I want it. Would anyone be interested in the 5 inch coils and rancho adjustables to suit? or I will probally return them and just get some adjustables for the 3 inch lift.

can't you put the wheel on back to front to give a bit more room to the back door |
