35/12.5/15 with 2 Inch Lift
Ok so with a 2 in lift and massive but neat fender trimming. Could you fit 35/12.5/15? How much would you trim the fenders?I want it sorta stock height but with huge tires.

im doin 33's with a 3inch lift and that looks tight.......i say you could do it....but.....you couldnt flex out your suspension but if its a 99% street vehicle you might get away with it....also watch your turning too, my biggest problem seems to be that when you turn full lock the tires edge will be all up close and personal with your frame/uniframe........maybe someone will be selling us both wheel spacers soon......hmmmm

Have no problem cutting the fenders to bare minimum but still allow them to be recognizable as fenders. I just want big tires with a low ride.I could settle with 33/12.5/15 but could it be done neatly.

the cherokee flares are tough to trim because they are 2 separate pieces i think the inner piece is gonna go away and then the outer piece will be trimmed where the angle coming out from the body meets the verticle(flat to the side of the truck) edge on the top of the flare so that it sticks out just as far as always but is hollow under neath then take a BFE to your pinch welds.......but again none of that helps with steering i got 33x10.5x15 BFG m/t's and you might wanna find something narrower than 12.5 cause these things keep there wheels tight in the wheelwells

I wouldnt wait the time and cost of cutting wheels, grinding dicks, sawzall blades, and tape itll take.
You could use that money and the money saved by stepping down to a 33 and run a 3"-4" lift and not have to cut all the way up to the hood and into the firewall.
There comes a time when you gotta say enoughs enough. Do it right or not at all...Im not saying you need to spend high dollars on a big lift so theyll fit but make them fit properly and safety. Please

check out the sticky thread of lift and tire setups. one guy on there has 1" lift with 37"s. you might change your mind after that... also you will definatley need either wheel spacers or some backspaced rims. so youre not rubbing on lca's and whatnot.
