Before buying my Cruiser...I tested to make sure crawl functioned properly—with a salesman in the passenger seat. He was completely freaked out because of the horrible noise & I had to keep reassuring him it was normal. Not sure he ever believed me...but pretty sure he felt better when I bought it.

Great setup and nice looking LC. Was the 1.25” spacers needed for that tire size? Since your tire is ~12” in width was curious if spacer was needed to help with clearance/rubbing issues.
I currently have stock suspension and no spacers. I just got these rims and was thinking biggest I could go on stock setup is 285/70/17 with some minor fender and mud flap massaging/trimming.

I like that 305/65. What is the offset of your Icon wheels? +25? I have an +18 offset wheel and curious if your KO2 would fit my truck without issue. Anyone know?

Spacers aren't needed for my set up, I actually have them off now and no issues. However, I have the KDSS relocate mod, and mudflaps removed, and maybe ~2inch lift from BP-51s. @eric sarjeant might be able to say. I think if I went up to a taller setup then yes they would be necessary.

25mm I believe.
How do you like your tires and the size? Your new rig looks awesome...loving the uniqueness of it as well. I keep waffling whether to go 295/70-18 or 285/70 and now 305/65. I sure love the beefier look. My 35”s are killing mpg 11.5 avg and they make love to my KDSS at full turn.

Thanks! I love the size. The tire width gives the cruiser a substantial footing from all angles. Without the spacers they line up exactly with the slee sliders. With the 1.25 spacers it becomes "extra" as the kids say these days.
A few have gone the other route with a distinctly tall and skinny setup, which I think also has a purpose-built and authentic look.
I think I'll keep this setup until we go overseas. Then I'll research a more widely available tire size.
