Default Finally have pics up of my 35's with the leveling kit

After staying up till 4 am last night grinding, cutting swearing and waking up the neighbors, the 35 inch Nitto Trail Grapplers and Mopar 2.5 inch leveling kit are finally on. The fenders required some trimming and griding to get the fenderwell plastics far back in there enough to not rub at all. The set up is the Mopar 2.5 leveling kit with 20x10 Rockstars with Nitto 35" Trail Grapplers. Here she is now my sig is the stock pics.

That looks incredible. Love to see a pic from the side to see how much tire you have sticking out past the fenders. Did the tires not work with the flares in your stock pic?

I just put them on today but I notice a significant negative difference in acceleration. I am assuming I will lose about 2mpg on average with the new set up. I ordered a Volant Cold Air and put in an At3030 to try to offset the difference. The tires come out about 2-3 inches from the wheel wells. I removed the flares because I wasn't a fan of the look but now I am actually debating putting them back on to lessen the effect of the tires sticking out. I hate the look when people put on wheel spacers and it's not nearly that bad but I would like to only have them coming out 1-2 inches.
Thanks for the positive feedback guys!

Wow, bet your the only one around your neighbourhood that even has a 2010 HD, let alone a levelled one with sick rims.
