Trim the inside edges of the plastic arch flares and round over the edge of the steel wings slightly. Nothing too taxing.

I would never go back to 1,3 engine and 235 75 15 again.
I live in Western Norway and we have hills. I drive half an hour before the road rise 300m over a Mountain pass or - 290m under a fjord. For longer trips there is allways at least 1000m up.
It just take away too much power for my liking, and make it lesser fun in the low range.
And my clutch got smelly..
215 75 15 is ok though.

Norway 2005 Jimny M16A VVT, 235 BFG MT, 2" Trailmaster, ARB rear lck, 17%/87% high/low gears.
