35's on Black Diamond, No lift, No rub

[SaveTheManuals]

Specs for my bronco:
35x12.50x18 Nitto Ridge Grapplers
Fuel Trophy Wheels +1 offset
Black Diamond
2.3L Manual Transmission
20% Tint if anybody is wondering

1. I am planning on lifting it with the rough country 2 in kit.(Don't care about their rep) Update 8/9/2021, the rough country lift was installed.
2. There isn't much of a difference driving around with the manual transmission. There's definitely enough power to support them. I'm about to drive approx. 300 miles this weekend so I will get more experience with the setup.
3. No speedo adjustment yet. Hard to tell if the digital speedo is off, but I am gonna have it calibrated.
4. Yes, I took the crash bars off and yes, there is no rub.
5. I am planning on changing the fenders when there are more options available. I like the look of the tires stuck out a bit, but I know its probably illegal and it will kick up a lot of on the side of my car.
6. I am a casual off-roader, not gonna be doing anything serious anytime soon.

I will try to get more pics as time permits, but for now this is all I have. Enjoy!

Nice! I am deferred to 2022 and on the fence between a base sasquatch and BD then upgrading tires and lift later. This look scores a point for the latter option! Looking forward to hearing your driving impressions after the weekend.

Looks great.

looks good, but I was under the impression the rub concerns might only present when the suspension is flexed. Which might be irrelevent if your only driving on pavement (like me). but still curious if you tested this with a tire up on a curb or something.

Beautiful set up. Love those tires and definitely think the 2inches of extra clearance will complete the look. Wise choice!

Looks great!

I'm also not worried about the RC lift, but just a FYI, Zone's is the same price but looks better quality.

That looks badass. Wasn't sure If I was going to go straight to 35's like you are. I'll wait until someone hits some trails to see what kind of flex we can get away with. How much room do you have between the tire and the upper control arm?

And you don't get any rubbing even when turning/turning and bumping? That +1 offset is interesting. Moved the wider tires out quite a bit.

Looks great, will look perfect with the lift.
