I've checked!
I can do what I want and it doesn't effect my policy!
As long as mechanicaly it's safe, same as any work!
4.5" kit ordered! 
Let upset people parking next to them at the supermarket!

Finally decided on my wheel any tyres!
Cooper stt pro's
Only came into country via import few weeks ago and still not available from Cooper UK!
Has had good ratings and supposed to be better on road and off than original version! 33x12.5x15
Mated to 10x15 Blass modulars
Wanted d-mods but couldn't justify the extra £120 for different shape holes!

Good choice with the Coopers 
Googled them for a look and the tread looks more similar to Creepy Crawlers rather than BFG MTs like the ones ive got are, so should be good

They were officially unveiled at week or so ago but have been available since June,talked to someone yesterday about them he fitted a set and took them off 6 weeks later saying that he couldn't get on with them whatever that means,he fitted the new pattern BFG AT and took them off mid September because they were worn out in under 8k.

| I do know they are better behaved on the road that some aggressive patterned tyres (Pro Comp etc) and they do clear mud well due to the sipe design.Their are at least 2 dozen sets over here of them, and reports coming back about them are all good.

Right, wheels are on and are taller than my 2y old! Lol!
4.5" lifts is in place,
When on the ground I can only just see in the window! Lol!!
But I need some advise
When on the ramp the rear springs are loose and can be removed without unbolting shocks,
(Lwb kyb hd springs with rough country 2+ shocks!)
Don't want to loose a spring on full articululatiin is it not a problem? As I see it I can fit shorter shocks, strap springs, fit spring spacers or leave!
But all have there different consequences!!
