Wheel Spec Info, Hard to find a one stop shop.

Mine was trimmed on the front side of the wheel wells. That's the easy trim since there's no bracket to get in your way. You should be able to mark the cladding with a grease pencil to guide you in how much will have to be cut off or better yet, take a picture of your wheel well & practice on that. There are some wheel well pix in my gallery that I took for someone a while back (they didn't come out very good though).

Can't say how my gas mileage was effected since it was done by the PO.

I had to trim a bunch on the front of mine as well... But like LB said, no one notices unless they're an owner of these vehicles, and they look for it. It'll be even less noticeable after I get Bedliner sprayed on all my cladding.

etlsport strikes again with an unheard of number of random photos!

heres a comparison of cobrajet's VX and tom4bren's VX nose to nose notice how tom's wheel well continues down at an angle while cobra's rounds down to be even with the other side



(i just cut out the middle of the photo.. the height difference is actual.. and just for fun in the background you can see cstylesVX and my VX height side by side)

BTW, mine is a 3" lift and I think Andres' is too. Good photo to guestimate the hood height difference with/without lift. I wish now that we had taken one similar with the arse ends. If we get together at Lake Anna next month we'll have to try.

FYI,

I had the camera out taking some pix of the diff drop brackets I just installed so I took a few others as well that pertain to this thread:

full size spare on rear door

pix of tire protrusion for the wiki mentioned earlier

Not for this thread but I also took pix of Tone's hitch with receiver installed (yes, it's quite a drop but works well for both the boat & SeaDoo trailers).

The photos are in my gallery, enjoy.
