ROFLMAO @ you thinking they are 35's bahahahahhaha.. yes mate.. the 'tire' shop told you lies.. they look more like a 235 which MAY equal ABOUT a 31.. lol.. on a good day!
fwiw these are 35 inch rubber on a 16 inch rim...
See the difference..!? you will be VERY hard pressed fitting them under your tray or under them front guards!
31's JUST fit on a zook, depending how you go about it, chopping guards and bashing seams, or fitting body lifts and suspension..
zook on 31's
When you say you swapped the axle location, it was a SPOA when you brought it? that is spring over axle.. quiet a common conversion on 4wds.. but yours looks to be 2wd right!? Did you get you pinion angle and axle housings in the correct location? has it been ADR approved? you MAY run into some trouble(depending where your located) with blue slips/ RWC etc if the job hasnt been signed off by a qualified mechanic..
Keep the pictures coming mate.. always good to see a young fella getting into building up their first car
Must ask.. whats with the busted sh1tter pushie posing with the new grill?! Did it get jealous and take a swipe at the front bar(see dint) and the front bar retaliated breaking off its headstem tube!?
If your insistant on the tires being a 35 inch.. by all means pull out a tape measure and get some pics with them on the ute..showing the measurment.. but if you measure and they ARE NOT A 35.. expectation is to still post up the photo and swallow your words
