Cant help with the tire pics as I have 16x8's

However, you dont have to gut the bumper for your tow hooks.
THis is my '99 with 3" BL

The previous owners did it. It is just a solid block that is drilled completely through. Bolts run up through the frame an bolt at the top. It was very solid

I had to go an booger it up though. Pulled them off as I had an Idea for a skid plate. So know I gotta go cut off some tubing thats welded to the blocks and the bolts are boogered up. Gotta get that fixed an back on, thanks for reminding me.

the best i got. They hang out about a good inch or so. 15x10s look better with flares. 15x8s if u dont have flares. IMO Mine already sling rocks like a mo fo. 15x10s on a non flared truck would stick out 2" or more and it would destroy your paint. IMO

that looks good, they dont stick out to far at all...I was just thinking 12.50 may be too wide for a 8" wheel...But i guess not...thank you

Her backspacing looks pretty low, thats why it doesn't stick out to much. Backspacing makes a bigggg difference on how far your tire will stick out.

tires dont rub I had to do real minor trimming on the front plastic valance and then on the fender flairs but it was minor. If you articulate alot then it stuffs the back tires in to the flair but it dosnt hurt anything just gotta be careful. But I have been mobbing through the dunes and mud and rough *** roads and dont have a problem with rubbing at all.

Judging by this pic i had saved....i'd say 15x8 w/ 4" backspace. At that angle with a 10", you would not see the center cap.
