Looks great brotha! Im curious if you're experiencing any rub issues due to a larger diameter than most and keeping the mud flaps. Hows the body mount and fender liner rub if any? Thanks.

There is some slight rubbing now at full lock, but not all the time. Mainly if I'm braking and the weight shifts pretty good. The rub was not there with the stock rims, so the wider offset I think is what is causing it. I'll give it a go for a few days and see if it's bad enough to where I need to remove the flaps.

Well I figure it's time to get a build thread together. I've got some writing to do and will get this post updated with all the latest info on the rig, but for now I wanted to share some of my latest pics with the new Konig Countersteer Type X wheels.

Also, BIG THANKS to Dustin at @FNWheels for hooking me a with the Konig's he's a great guy to work with!

Enjoy!

Nice build. What's your clearance now, front and back? Just curious...

Are you talking front and rear clearance, or the clearance from the ground to the fenders? I'd have to measure and let you know.

Great pics Alex, love the color combo. You happy w/ the 255s so far?

You have a Flickr or any photo information?

EDIT: Found it!

My suspicions are that the request for ground clearance to lowest point.

The 255's have been great so far. On road ride is great, and offroad they have not let me down yet. They looked awefully skinny to me on the stock wheels, but with the new wheels and offset I really love the stance and the way they look.

I was wondering who the new Flickr follower was, thanks!

Ground to lowest point. Or what you added to the factory specs.

Good to know, thanks! Really is eye candy looking at it. Do you experience much more roll or lean when going around curves? Is that a trade off?
