You guys think frame stiffeners would fit with aftermarket bumpers that come with tie ins. Thinking of ordering hd full set of stiffeners but jcr says their from winch bumpers won't fit with the tie ins and already looking at mine it looks like a real tight fit....should I just settle for mid stiffeners?

I have my stiffeners notched around my bumper and then fish eyed back together.
32's are 11.5 wide.
I've seen a 12.5" wide tire on a 7" wide rim, i wouldnt trust it as much as i do an 8" wide rim when aired down for offroading.

If they're the normal 32x11.5R15s yes... 32x15R15s no lol. Don't just look at the first number when tire shopping. The rest mean something, too!
Yeah I've seen 35x12.5R15 on early XJ/YJ 5-spoke aluminum rims too. I guess they worked for that guy, no idea if it's a good idea though.

For reasons unspecified, I need help quickly.

No spark. Turns over, but won't start.
Jeep was bogging down and dying with increasing frequency until it died in Neutral and wouldn't restart.
Have fuel at the rail. Won't even stumble or try to start; just cranks.
