plus size tires

I put oversized tires (275/45R22) on the GCL at 1” over stock and needed to upsize the spare to match so that if used it wouldn’t damage the gears/overheat the diff. As it turns out, the tire I ordered fit very snug (had to wiggle/flex the bumper facia to make it fit) so I thought I’d share...

Posting to educate on new suspension design and to see if anyone has experience to add. Could be major issues attempting to modify wheel geometry (e.g. increase tire size), but on the plus side…the new GCL’s should ride like a sports car on pavement and have better articulation off road...
