These wheel adapters will make it even worse. The offset of the Dirty Life beadlock wheels is already at -14, pushing the wheel out about 2 inches.
Yeah, probably gonna touch inner liner when turning and stuffed. Are you allowed to chop the fenders over there ? If you split the fender, and do aftermarket inner fenders, you can gain about 3 “‘of space over the wheel. These are Dirty Life wheels 17x9 with-12 offset.

About 500 total from allmoparparts after tax, shipping was free. maybe another 25-30 for the OBD bluetooth scanner and paying for the VIN on the JSCAN app.
I think if you get it preinstalled on the Jeep the window sticker shows $695?
Overall looking back on it, it wasn't as hard as I thought but that's because I now know how to do it. Its only popping off the trim that was the hard part for me. Honestly, I wish I should have done it last month. I'm spoiled because of it now.
Definitely may have to do this, cuz it’s pretty much the only option I didn’t build mine with but have been wishing I did since I had it on my grand Cherokee before the wrangler

Nothing near as exciting as what I’ve read the last several pages....but Willys received a new MoPar MO349 oil filter and 5.25 quarts of Castrol Edge 5W20 full synthetic oil at 11,085 miles. Not many 61°F days right after Christmas, but I took advantage of it and got-r-done.

If he goes with a taller fender maybe. I have these Bushwacker fenders they add so much clearance. I’m going to do 35” tires. I currently have 33’s on with the same lift they have.

They are bolted to the factory bolts.
Ok so it’s actually super easy. I have been doing this on all my Jeeps. On the side where the cowls go, there are two t35 bolts. Remove them. On your ammo can measure the distance of 8 3/8” inch apart. Drill two holes on the two marks you made. Then buy two bolts at local hardware store of the same pitch as the two factory bolts( I believe m10) and then get the length you prefer. Flush mount can will be shorter. I wanted a 3/8” gap between Jeep and can. Drill the holes high or low (choice is personal preference) I chose to drill holes on the higher side so the can would sit lower. Take your time, measure 4 times and place can where you would like it to set BEFORE you drill
