Im running standard steelies are fitted with khumos 235/75/15 with a 3 inch lift and no triming of the bumpers was needed. I did initially get a 2 inch lift, but they were clearly to big so Russ at jimnybits swopped the kit for me and it looks and runs pretty good. Hasn't affected the gearing a great deal either, can cope with it for the moment

i bought them from here ... when new they were close to 32" across ...

stores.ebay.co.uk/Tyres-Direct-Online/4x...trksid=p4634.c0.m322

Tyres say on the side that they are 205x7.50x16
