2" out of the guard and 4" spring, only prob you will have is hitting your front arms and upper coil hat, as my 38's already hit. ( thats with 2" wheel spacers and hilux off set rims)

I have 40 inch tyres on my gq, 6 inch spring lift and a fair bit chopped out of the guards only hits on my radius arms on full lock, 42s would be insane on a gq but i like post pics when there on. Anything for me too want to put my mate 44 inch boggers on....

i've fitted 42's on my shortie with 4" lift & 3" body lift.
there's a fair bit of trimming of the gaurds to make them fit
without rubbing, but it's worth it.
