have the same tires (sig info below). In the end I had to put 1" spacers to be able to turn w/o rubbing the frame (though maybe your rims would be different), trim the flare on the front bumpers, trim the flare on the rear, cut down the pinch welded sheetmetal and cut away the fender liner.
For the rear tires, I just had to remove the existing bolts on the mud flaps and replace them w/ flushmounted phillips heads from Home Depot. They still rub the rear mud flaps, but not in a bad/noticeable way.
I had to go on 3 trips before I could get enough/varied articulation to figure out what rubbed and didn't and what amount of rubbing was acceptable.
EDIT: Oh and what a sickeningly great price you got on those!

update: worked 8 hours on the lift today. once i figured it out , it was pretty easy. Had a hard time getting the lower control arm down on the front to put the strut assembly back in. In the front , i got 3" of lift , and i think around 4" in the back. I have one tire mounted on the stock 5 star wheel and IT CLEARS THE CONTROL ARM. I thought for sure i would have to get the 1/4" spacers. I think i may go ahead and get them anyway to have more clearance. there is about 1/2" space b/w the tire and control arm. For now i am using the stock rear shocks , as the fj80 shocks i got with my coils were shot.

You say 3" top out spacers?! Are you sure about that??! I wouldn't run that. I hope you meant within the pack spacers.

I went with the 255/85/16s for mine a few months ago and paid $153/tire for them.
But, if anyone is in SoCal and can pick them up in Long Beach, then you will save a lot. IMO, I have not found any other place cheaper for tires than these guys. I can buy from them lower than I can buy from my wholesale accounts. Its amazing.

The spacers are 1.5" thick , give a 3" lift . Hopefully for christmas i will replace with toytec coilovers or a ome coil/shock combo. I am running the factory rear shocks now , i got fj80 shocks with my springs , but they are completely shot. I think this lift will be fine for now , It will only be driven ont he street for now , i dont really offroad. I will have more pics today when i get done putting the tires on and get it aligned.
