Cut off bumper outriggers

a bit of guard massaging with a hammer, or 2 inch bodylift

15 rim and say 9 or 10.5 wide tyre. Not sure about rim offset but if you go to the tyre shop they will generally be able to tell you

you can do it by redrilling your spring perches back 1" and remounting the centre pin on the front leaves there (hence moving the diff 1" forwards - but check the steering doesnt bind!) - run a 1" driveshaft spacer, and hammer and cut the shit out of the guards until they fit without modifying the bump stops (if you don't like cutting the guards then you'll need to extend the bump stops). You'll also want to address the gearing!

15x7 king rims will be fine, pretty sure theyre a -13mm offset.
