    The rear bar arms are made with that spacing so you can fit two 35s.
    Nice looking rig though, no doubt still a big wish lists.

    Thanks for the replies. The tyres do stick out a bit from the sides (can see them in my side mirrors) but that is the way they came from Powerful 4x4. They claim you can have 35" tyres on the wheel carrier side by side but that would be ridiculous. The bar has already started to crack and from fitting the towbar is when I noticed the quality of the bar. I would like to move them in further so they don't stick out too much but don't want the bar to fall apart!
