It's the backspacing of your rims.

^what he said.

To stop it you will need to get extended bumpstops.

What kind of lightbar is that on the Grand Cherokee?

 

[tommudd]

Backspacing is what is sitting your tires way out from the body so to speak, causing the problems, you are not going to be able to make it look like any monster truck. For front bumpstops go to Teraflex, 801-713-3314 Part number 0019301200 thats what you need rear you can make out of some different things PM me. But even with extra bumpstops you may have trouble with the rims you have, they are too wide to work properly, 8 inch wide is pushing it, 7 inch wide is the best!

Yea, now that I think about it, you should listen to tommudd. Being over seas it would be a lot easier for you to make your own rear bumpstops and use the teraflex up front. I would say shipping is insane so that would save some $$.

Do they have hockey pucks in the Middle-East?(whistle)

BS is measured from the rim mounting surface to the outside of the rear bead,basically lay the rim upside down,lay a straight edge(large ruler or such)and measure the distance from that to where the wheel mounts to the brake rotor.Stock back spacing is 5.5",when lifting a IFS vehicle the front wheels get sucked in so you want to push them out a little,but not much.The best rim sizes for a lifted KJ is a 16x7 rim or a 15x7(steel only) rim with 4"-4.5" of BS for the least amount of rub for tires upto 32" tall and 10" wide,your on your own for larger/wider tire sizes.

there is one full size hockey arena in Abu Dhabi (just 100 miles from Dubai) and ski Dubai where they can ski. Not so sure though how long the slope is but it's quite high and long that you really need to take the cable car to reach the peak....

 

[kjpilot]

Impressive. The vertical drop is 60 meters, just under 200 feet, which is very small. BUT it's all indoors & in the middle of the desert! That's way more impressive than an indoor hockey rink!

I just didn't think anyone there would care too much for hockey, so finding pucks at the store would be difficult.
