Hey all, I’m planning on putting 35" Falken Wildpeak Tires (315/70R17) on my stock Big Bend wheels (17x7.5). Gonna use bilstein 5100’s for the lift and set em at 2.2” in the front and 1.5” in the back. In looking at wheel spacers, I see options for 1.25” and 1.5”. Which ones will be best for...

Got it! I’ve looked online/at marketplace and haven’t found anything that looked in good shape. Gonna go with new falken’s on my existing wheels About the front and back lift; I think I’m going to go with 2” in front and 1.5” in back to keep just a bit of the rake to compensate for gear/camping...

Thanks for this! I’ll be referring back if/when the time comes…

Good looking out!

I see that they’re riiiiight on the cusp as they’re 7.5” and 35’s call for 8+”…. We’ll see if I can get away with it…

Booo.. I’m sure aftermarket would be a bitch I assume…

Yeah.. I think I’m gonna go with bora 1.25”s. Thank you!

Thanks for all of this! going with falkens at this point. Gonna stick with 35’s with spacers and go for the best yeah gonna do 2” in front but after researching more, it sounds like 1.5” in the back is suggested in that the BB is raked (rear is lifted 1-1.5” from factory). Don’t necessarily...

Gotcha! That’s TWO votes for bfg’s!

Got it! That’s one vote for bfg’s haha

Thinking of 1 to 1.5” wheel spacers to help with this… thoughts?

I think I’m gonna go with falken’s after hearing so much negative feedback on the bfg’s… thanks for this!

Got it! Definitely starting to go on trails that need these upgrades. Gaining the skill along the way as I’m learning with those who do know what they’re doing. And most importantly, definitely not taking what people say in the internet as gospel haha. Definitely cross referencing all of my...

Yeah, I looked into em. The price difference didn’t quite make sense for me in just getting into this… I’m sure one day I’ll look back and say “I wish I did” but until then… haha

Damn! I’m surprised I’m getting a bit of feedback around the ko2’s. Thought they were pretty good but seems like the consensus is that they’re not. Thanks much! What do you think? Falkners?

I hear ya. I think the answer is yes and no. I do have some experience in the past but still totally learning. Also, I’m wanting to continue to learn with experienced folks who can continue helping me learn but wanting the extra build to keep up. Recently went out and couldn’t get past an...

Total newbie. Started doing a bit of offroading with some kind folks that invited me on a recent trip as well as a few local spots myself. Wanting to have more fun! Here’s list and notes of some things I’m looking to do and get some feedback on. Got a quote from a local shop as a starting point...
