    Sal, can you do me a huge favor and take a picture of how much clearance you have between your tires and the upper ball joint/spindle. I was looking at my XK tonight and was thinking that with the 285s i just ordered it might be close. The wheel I bought have 4.5 inches of back spacing which would be the same as you running stock wheels with 1.5 inch wheel spacers. When I say the same im referring to the clearance between the tire and the spindle/ball joint. Thanks

    Perfect. If I have that same amount of clearance i'll be set. I was a little worried today when I was looking at my Jeep.

    Ya with that back space or spacers there is lots of room. I still haven't solved the clearance issues in the back what do you have planned?

    Well I just got (2) 1 inch performance accessories body lift spacers from the local off road shop that I'm going to use as bump stop spacers. The 4 inch BDS lift uses them in the rear but uses 2 inch spacers. I'll probably install them Friday night. Once that's done ill be cutting 1/2 inch off the flare all the way around. That should fix any issues in the rear. For the front I'm going to do what u did but only take off an inch all the way around. The tires and wheels will be on this weekend so ill post pictures by Saturday night.
