i ran 34 inch super swampers ( 9.50 x 34 ) on my 77 powerwagon and i had to trim the bottom of the fenders closest to the door about a 1/2 " .

i have a set of 35's for my '93 and i expect to have to put a pretty good arch into the spings to make them clear the fenders .

i might just have to try it my 33 12.50 didnt rub and if they do rub would the best thing probly just get a 4 in lift? i dnt want it to sit up off the tires to high i like the tire to fill the fender wells for the most part

i have 33x12.5's as well and they rub on the right side occasionally (i think the fender has been hit or something before i owned it)

i would say your best bet to fit 35's would be fender cutouts/flares. some of them look good and i agree that a no lift rig clearing 35's looks better JMO

my 33/12.50s hit so I put lift shackles on the front, ended up leveling the truck and the tires dont hit anymore

I'm sure with a 2 inch leveling kit you can run 35's without rubbing right?

Any idea where to start out looking for a leveling kit?

home made!! only thing to remember is (at least on my truck) the drive shaft angle gets real steep real fast...

(my 33 12.5's used to rub then i lifted the front 3 inches and they dont...so yes 3-4 inches will work)
