MKW M18 wrapped in Toyo Open Country M/T's 35/12.50-18. Absolutely no rubbing with an inch to spare. I'll probably need to adjust the torsion bars up front if I want to do some serious wheeling but even after two H2's, that's never happened.

I can't stress enough getting the right off set on the wheels. To test out whether the tires would fit the tire store ordered a single 18 inch wheel with the "same" off set and back spacing as the MKW's. It rubbed with those wheels, but I have an inch to spare with these wheels.

Morale of the story? Even with the same specs wheels will vary depending on who makes them. Also, with the "other" wheel the tires stuck out of the fender about two inches. With the MKW's it sticks out only 0.5 inches.

Jason sells the correct wheels on this site. Go to the H3 Accessories section and then look at the wheels he offers. I am so glad that i went with the correct wheels. Otherwise, I'd have rubbing and the whole torsion or lift issue. Additionally, I'd be kicking up every darn pebble onto my rear fender.
