- Rough Country 6” lift with M1 lifted struts
- XF wheels 22x12 -44 on
- Hankook MT2 37x13.50

Some of you may know that I did the lift install myself. Took me 2 days to complete. Difficult? Not really. But You definitely need some time.

So far I absolutely love how the tires ride. I’m getting barely any sound. I’m very impressed with these tires.

I will be cutting some parts off seeing it rubbs like crazy if you turn more than 45 degree angle.

As far as the ride, it’s a bit stiffer than stock but rides awesome.

Hope you plan to add some fender flares soon, so as not to throw road debris all over whomever ends up behind you in traffic.

Fender work. It’s still rubbing but not nearly as bad. I only cut metal on driver’s side.

I'm sure you know ...but that -44 offset is why you are trimming the fender , something close to -18 would clear
But it doesn’t look nearly as good. life…..there’s always a trade off :/

Stock height, brand new 275/65R20s Cooper AT3 XLTs. Debadged.

Bilstein 6112s @ 2.8” and ReadyLift UCAs front, Bilstein 5100s and MotoFab 1.5” spacers rear. Still have 1 1/8” of rake which is about what I was aiming for. (Some Icon 1.5” rear coils on the way.)
EDIT: Measured again after alignment, rake is closer to 1 1/2". The 2.8" seems to have net'd only about +2 1/2" in the front only a day after install--so, I expect it will settle even a bit lower. Regardless, I like the way setup looks now. I may add a 1/2" spacer on top of the struts once Icons are swapped in for the rear spacers depending on where everything settles.

Also put on some 1/2” Titan wheel spacers with hub rings to widen the stance on my stock 20x8s.

Just want to add that I settled on this setup in large part based on a lot of info and feedback in this forum, which was really invaluable. Got exactly what I was looking to achieve (which differs from person to person), and happy so far with the resulting ride quality and aesthetics.

So, thank you everyone.
