NEED advise on wheels, tires, front fenders and fast

35" would be fine toyo 35x12.50-17

do you think that 35" toyos would rub at stock perch?

What is the benifit of mid perch?

Which Toyos are you looking at?

I have heard the 35" Toyo MT rubs at stock perch. Something to do with the more aggressive tread.

The rub because they are bigger than the BFG. The BFG isn't a true 35 and the TOYO is I think.

Right. I just want to make sure the OP knows that since he seems to not want any rubbing.

My advice is to go mid perch to be safe. Will give you a bit more clearance for the tires and gives you a better angle of approach to boot.

Yup. Mid perch Is the way to go

Here's what I'd do. Mid or third perch if it's a 2011. Method double standards. Alpha 1 UCAs. BFG projects 37x12.50R17. Glassworks 2" flare 2" rise fenders. Lastly an alpha 1 TT bumper.

I think we are going to need to require your posts to have a disclaimer as your an intern at the company that produces the Alpha 1 parts.

Or maybe just mid perch...

Your choice of wheels will have a bigger impact on rubbing than anything. More specifically the offset. If you go less offset that the stock wheels, you have that much less margin for error (rubbing) with larger size tires. I'm on mid-perch, 37x12.5x17 tires, with stock wheels and don't rub at all. Stock wheels are +34 offset. Most of the popular Raptor after market wheels are much less offset. They do give the wider stance, but the trade off is a much higher chance of the tires rubbing with anything larger than the stock size. And this is not talking about off-road and full compression bumps.

Do you get rub off-road at full compression?

While it is true I intern at Outlaw, they do not pay me and I don't get any sort of commission for selling parts. Not even a discount haha. I'm happy to put a disclaimer up, but I really think he should look into the TT bumper, because it's super clean. Should I just write it in like the signature area or something?
