False marketing claims aside, the stock 315's are not 35's.. Not even close..
The stock Goodyear's are well known rock slingers but they are pretty lightweight. If you off-road, I'd consider something different as the sidewalls are also pretty thin and puncture easily..

I recently replaced my Rough Country Rock Sliders (frame mounted) with DV8 Rock Sliders (also frame mounted).
My reason for the switch is I had a Colorado trip planned where more intense rock bashing would likely occur..
The RC sliders were a plus because they also acted as a sidestep but that...
My Badlands came with a somewhat respectable compliment of skids but there were a few areas left unprotected that I thought needed to be.
Today I completed the last of my frame mounted rock rails and skid plate installs..

Yeah, 9 out of 10 posts over there were 'rules are rules' type posts.. It was seriously annoying.. You don't see it much here, or on Bronco Nation, but I guess some are still doing it..
It's a weird reddit thing. People drive around looking for another Bronco to park next to so they can take a photo and upload it with the title 'Rules are rules'....

If someone is going to heavily modify their Bronco, I'd think long and hard about buying an extended warranty that could basically be useless.
I previously considered getting one but my Bronco is heavily modified so for me, it would basically be useless.. Sure some things would be...
I'd prefer the rear seats left in and as previously stated, a flat and rugged top. Maybe a few tie down spots somewhere that's easily accessible. I am down to order on day 1..
I went with clip 5 in the front which gave me 2 1/2" in the front and clip 1 in the rear which gave me 1" in the rear.
I have a winch, winch plate and an ARB dual under the hood that caused additional rake / droop on the front. I am now almost completely level.
