I don't own a set of them, but I might buy them this fall. I can't really make up my mind on what tires I want.

35s will fit fine with a leveling kit.

I did not cut anything when I had teh 2.5 spacers, and it did rub when I made sharp turns. I recently had these tires bead balanced, and the difference is amazing. I did a lot of research on this before doing it. This cost $60 bucks, and they self adjust the balancing of the tires. I had a wobble at 55mph, and the tire shop where I had them rotate and balance could never get the wobble out. Once I bead balanced, it was gone.

So you remove the weights and pour ceramic beads in the tube? Interesting.
