so a few months back I purchased a set of Jake's forward offset a arms absolutely amazing quality very happy with them running 34" assassinators no rubbing work great everything I ever wanted at the time other then basically no turning radius because of the steering stops so you dont wreck the CV axles so now I'm wondering if a 6" lift would have been a better purchase little more ground clearance but I'm not sure if you would gain any turning radius has anyone ran forward offset and switched to a lift that can chime in or anyone running a lift that can tell me from factory the difference in turning radius like dont get me wrong I know it's not going to be anything like stock but I'm pretty sure my crew cab pickup has the same turning radius as my defender lol20201223_164552.thumb.jpg.1ead922fea084c8abfaf9a2344ecb310.jpg

On my 2019 I put 2019 Cryptid 30x10x14 on the front and 30x11x14 on the rear with no arms and a very slight lift and no rub or difference in turning radius.(in my build thread) Now with 34" you are 2 + " taller (radius) so that may not be a useful comparison for turning radius?🤔

I’m in the same boat! 2020 xmr on 33s I want 35+ to clear rocks, stumps and ditches. Also look cool 😂
