Looks awesome mate

35's on XJ's always look just right.

The 1.9 two faces are 4.4*1.7 or somthing like that..

Those tires looks a lot better on there than the last set you had, they're a good size for the amount of lift you have.

Thanks! I like them more too! Lol
It was built for 35s.
Now the tires tuck the fenders perfect!

Gawd damn - look at all the weights on those wheels. I'd take them back and say do it again. That is way too much, even for a steel wheel. Pop the bead and spin it 180* and try again.

I agree on the weights. That right front has what, at least 6oz on the outside? I'd have them rebalance that one for sure, my Maxxis Trepador radials only took 5oz total each on steelies. I'd hate to see you snag a weight on a rock and have it go through the sidewall of your brand new MTR's.

I would also recommend getting rid of those weigh all together and run Dynabeads http://innovativebalancing.com/. They work 10 times better than external weights.

Other than that, they look great on your truck!
