    I took Jacobs XK over to Discount Tire today and tried these on. My battery was dead in the old camera and every time I tried to take a photo with my phone the blasted thing would ring and I had to answer it.

    Anyway Travis took some photos and I am sure they will make it up soon after he does some research on the tires that we tested.

    We tried two different size tires and I think I can even go one larger on mine since I removed the front bumper and fender, I will check when I get back from Moab.

    Thanks for coming out last week Jon. It was nice to meet you in person finally.

    We test fit the 17x9 0mm offset Level 8 ZX with two different tire sizes, 265/65R17 and 265/70R17. The vehicle we tested has a 2.5" lift/leveling kit and aftermarket upper control arms. It also already had some fender liner trimming done to it.


    For reference. Here's the commander with stock wheels, 255/75R17 tires, and 1.5" bolt on wheel spacers.


    Test Fit #1: 17x9 0mm offset Level 8 ZX wheels with P265/65R17 Falken Wild Peak AT:

    Notes: This application could be good for those with stock suspension IF the vehicle owner is willing to make some modifications. The P-metric P265/65R17 tire size is approved for a 9" wide wheel. With stock suspension (no lift or leveling kit) this application may require some fender liner trimming in the front fender wells. With 2.5" lift/leveling kit little to no fender liner modifications would be needed. Please note, additional modifications may be needed for vehicle with rear Hvac.

    (Test fit vehicle in pics below has a 2.5" leveling kit/lift)





    Test Fit 2: 17x9 0mm offset Level 8 ZX with P265/70R17 Falken Wild Peak AT

    Notes: This application is best for vehicles with a 2.5" lift or greater. Front fender liner modifications will be required to avoid rubbing. P265/70R17 is approved for this wheel. Please note, additional modifications may be needed for vehicle with rear Hvac.

    (Test fit vehicle has 2.5" lift/leveling kit)
