i only did the standard cut'n fold in the back and a slight trim up front (just past where the mounting holes are for the flare). but i did do a lot of bumpstoping to get it how i wanted it

Alright. I think i may just go with 31x12.5's keep all my power, mileage, and get more tire on the ground than my 10.5's without trimming, i love the body on my jeep its in pretty dang good shape and i really hate to cut it up...plus the 33's are more of a want not a need

Ya looks pretty sandy^^^ But sometimes thats better than the goopy stuff here in S.D that just fills up your tires and turns them into slicks Some of the gravel/dirt roads here are so bad you can drive down the center of the road after/during rain storm and just slide right off the road no matter how slow you go, i hit the ditch 3 times and just decided i was better off just driving down the grassy ditch

It can get like that here. But the sandy crap is bad when it sticks cause it will not come off, at all

I kinda know what you mean, i have fender flares and mine is still almost that bad When i get my 12.5's flares are gonna be pointless cuz with the backspacing on my wheels and that wide of tires, there is gonna be more tire outside the flare than in But i guess on the plus side, if i decide to trim the fenders losing the flares wouldn't be much of a loss.
