Ordered 5 baja claws today 35x12.5




I also ordered 4 weld on DIY beadlocks from desertfab


Should be in about a week or so

Schweet!!!!!!

Hope you bought some big bumpstops or sawzaw blades. :wink:

Hmmmmmm, yea, good point, how are you going to stuff 35's with 3.5" of lift???????

It'll fit.

hah the plan is to try it out without any modifications and see what rubs and what needs to be trimmed. Im wondering with the wider Sahara flares that it might not rub much at all

Worst case scenario is I flat fender the front and trim up the rear, which is something I want to do anyways :wink:

Oh, it'll fit driving down the road. I'd think twice about discoing. The flares won't matter much, you're not running wider.

anyone have dezrunr's email info? I pm'd him last week on the board about setting up a time to weld the beadlocks on but he hasnt gotten back to me

Yeah, he doesn't really check up on here as much lately. Your best bet that he does check is to email him directly at dezrunr@yahoo.com.

How much were the tires? I need to try and get new ones before we go on the trip.

a little over 1k

If youre staying with 33's there are several used sets with %80+ tread left for around $500-700 over on www.virtualjeepclub.com in the for sale forum

If I didnt go larger thats what I would have done

I was just wondering, I am staying with 33's but I just found out that I have someone in my family that I can get them for about half price.

ooh is it 6:30 yet!

heh my tires are suppose to arrive today sometime between now and 5:00

cant wait to see how they look

What is the rating for those on the road? I want to get something that is great on rocks and good on the pavement.

hah i have no idea :D

I had a hard time finding anyone who was running them. Most people stick with MTR's or BFG

I have heard good things about the Cooper STT and the TOYO Mt though too.

My biggest thing was I wanted something different then everyone else so we could compare.

They do great on road and off from what I have seen. I few guys I run with have them and they did good when things got wet.
I think you will be happy with them. I want a set of red dot baja claws once the jeep is trail only. :twisted:
