Lol, everything you listed not to do is what is needed for a reliable wheeling rig, sure 3.55s will look just as good as 4.88 in a parking lot.

Boom, it happend! 35"x12.5"x15" BFG KM2s + 15"x7" Ecco wheel + 2" spacer = kind of works. They actually fit and look ok on the narrow stock wheels. Anyone want to go mall crawling this afternoon in LA?

That looks really nice. I'm looking to do the same with the stock turbines except only with my current 1.25" spacers for 4" bs.

35s are monstrous on XJs but they look sick. I still need to readjust bumpstops and do some minor trimming then I will be ready for the trail.
