Has anyone enlarged the wheel wells for larger tires?

That looks awesome. Are those Method wheels, what size and offset? I have Method Double Standards on my Land Cruiser and love them.
Yeah 17” Methods, 0 offset. The tire sticks out about an inch outside the wheel well which looks pretty aggressive. BFG K02’s.

Nice. I have the Falcon Wildpeaks, which are a very similar tire to the KO2s. Did you just have to trim the fender liners and mudflaps or something more or metal?

Yes, cut and welded back metal and cut the running board, then pinned back the liner. Its still a tight fit but no rubbing.
