35s and backspacing

no one running 35s? guess only the guys on solid axles

My boy has a 98 blazer on 34's and running a 4.25 back space. I know on the second gens it will just require some trimming of the fenders.

thanks. i already trimmed before to fit the 33s so hopefully it will work nicely with the 35s.

with the thornbirds they already stick out 2 inches past the plastic flares. i took a flat pice of plastic and just made a lip to stick out as far as the tires. not the prettiest but it beats the cops. i got a company that say they can make me some custom ones once im finished but its not going to be cheap
