Looks awesome! How much did you have to move the crash bars? was it fairly easy? Do you think you could have fit 34's without rubbing?

I was debating whether to add another inch block in the rear or not, now I am debating either 2 inches or 3 inches total.

I moved them until they were "inside" the bumper.. Meaning I'd hit my bumper before the bar. The bar moved easily.. I would recommend having an extra set of hands but it could be done by yourself. Unfortunately I did not take measurements.

I think 34's would scrub on the bar without some slight mods to the bar..

How do you move the crash bars?

about to get my truck leveled and have some new wheels put on and was wondering if i could get away with a +1 offset with 275/70/18 ko2s with a 2.5" level in the front without rubbing. I would prefer to not remove the crash bars if possible.

Thanks.

I have 285/65/20 (34.6") Nitto Terra Grappler G2 on stock 20's, with 1.5" level. I have no rubbing issues at all.

Well I went with 275/70/18 K02's to be mounted on Mayhem Warrior 18x9 with -12 offset. Discount Tire matched the best prices I could find on both. Will post pictures once those are done along with the 2.5 inch level and extra inch blocked added to the rear.

Hoping it all turns out well, I am a bit nervous. Would have liked to go bigger, especially since the trucks with the level and 35's look so good, but didnt want to modify my crash bars. Once I have to replace these in a few years I will add a lift and 35's.

Sooooooooooo,

Any advice for a guy planning on a 0 offset wheel not wanting to mess with the crash bars? I was thinking probably 33"ish would be safest, maybe a 295/70 (~33x~12) with a 17x9 0mm offset wheel.

Also, sub'd

Do you plan on lifting or leveling it?
