Just stuck a new set of pluggas on the nav, 16x8 black sunnies with 275/75 bf goodrich at's. Looks the part but under full lock the tyres just scrub the guard. Any tips on massaging the guard to fix this?
Cheers.

I have the exact same on mine. What offset did you go for? You need around +20 for best fitment.
You will need to remove the front mudflaps also if you dont have a lift

And most likely the inner guard as well. It's ok on the road but off road when mine flexed it grabbed it. Heaps easier doing it in the drive way than in the bush.
 
Nice rig mate looks great. Got +20 offset on the new rims. That said, its been a while since i got the torsion bars readjusted and with the bullbar and winch on they tend to sag a bit on stock suspension. A 2" lift is next on the books, jusf after advice on making the tyre well as large as possible to allow for travel etc and to fix the scrubbing problem untill the lift goes in.
