Default Fox 2.0 Coilovers

So I have searched all over these threads and called around and nobody can give me a for sure answer. I wanted to put on the fox 2.0's and put on a 295/70r17 nitro terra grappler with fuel 17x8.5 wheels with 5 inch backspace and a +6 offset. Does anybody know if this will fit or do I need a different lift?

probably work. the size is not THAT wide the wheel is fairly close to stock dimensions so thats not a huge factor it should fit, but you may need to do some minor trimming on the front valence under tray. its only a 33"tire so it'll fit with the coilovers without issue. if it rubs at full lock trim a touch. but it should be very minor if at all.

Fox or the BOSS will work fine for your needs. Both are fine equipment. I went with the BOSS and love them, FOX is praised by many as well. no loss in either choice

What height did you set your BOSS coil overs?

What are the differences between the bosses and foxes?

The fox's are aluminum body where the boss's are steel body. So if your in an area that gets road salt the fox shocks will hold up better . And aluminum gets rid of heat faster too.

Wheel/tire combo should fit just fine. Like others said, the valence may need to be trimmed or removed. I just installed the Fox 2.0 this past weekend.
