Alright, so just for the hell of it, I measured the distance from the center of the wheel to fender flare. Right now it's at 23 inches and if I remember right, it was 17 and 17.5 inches stock. Not bad!!!

Looks great. I thought the bumper was a little big before, but it looks much more at home now.

I like your build. I've been looking at the same lift. How does it ride and have you gotten any driveline vibes from it?

Do you have the number of the place where you got your lift installed? I want to call and ask if they have the bolts I need.

It's somewhat stiff, but 100 times better than the bouncy ride I had before.

They are not new (1 1/2 years old), but the guy said that they still look good, only need some touch-up. Quite frankly, I just want them for the backspacing, so it will stop rubbing on the LCA's. Anyways, I'll post pics as soon as I get them.

Alright, so I picked up the wheels tonight. They are scratched and have a couple of small dents on the edge, but nothing paint and a hammer can't fix, lol. I will start fixing them tomorrow probably. Only thing id there's only 2 center caps, but the guy said he cracked them offroading, so whatever, I don't really care for them. Anyways, will post pictures once they are all done.
