3.5" on 32s.... they're worn down to about 30" now, but they weren't in that pic.

That's cool. I'm gonna get some new 33's here in a month or so. I'll keep what I've got for now, but I want to do 4.5"... then long arms eventually. I'll play around with that for a while and see how I do before I consider 35's or larger. That's when thing get hairy as far as breakage.

And no roofrack. And more rust.
