That is first step in triming, only to fit big tire size 31"

In #1 i suggest to cut very precise and gently sharp metal piece, that's hidden under plastic wheel arch, and paint it. As You see there is quite big hole, there collects lot of mud. In next step i'll make small mudguards to cover that hole in front and rear wheel arches.

Rear wheel


Here i suggest to first remove wheel, next cut plastic on the yellow line, and cut metal support on the orange line. First attached picture shows you how deep cut is in rear wheel arches.
I hope that useful for you.

I think that Jimmny have lot of space inside for wheel, you have original rims? Maybe you have rims with positive offset (+ET)? I think, after 2" lift 235s tires will have enough space without trimming

Wow. That's a real nice Jimny. I fitted 30x9.5 BFG MT last week and had to do some serious fender trimming, as I just have a 2" trailmaster lift....
If I ever make it to Poland I'd like to go for a ride :cheer:

Thanks!
I hope that if someone and his Jimny ever plan to visit or cross the Poland, will plan to meet with me and take a ride together. So feel free to be my guest
