Went to install a second hand set of wheels and tires off of another Pioneer. Turns out they rub my ricochet skids not even close to full lock. Fml. 28x10x14. So for anyone who is wondering this does not work.
Dang, that sucks! Looks so good though! The P5 must have a more open wheel well around the frame area bc I run 28” zillas on it and barely have any rub at full lock and shock compression. But those tires have a square profile so I’m sure that doesn’t help you there. I’m not super familiar with the P1K but I bet if you put some forward arched A-arms up there you’d have no problem clearing those tires.

Well they are off a 1000 that didn't rub at all. I basically is the skid protection that is in the way. Trying not to cut my expensive skids. Hard not to do lol.

I have 5x2 sti no spacers in front with 235-r75 -15 which are 28.5 no arms or lift and they clear I had to trim trail armor skid but it still hangs out more than yours what do your tire measure ?

Can't see me doing either. We absolutely need to have good a arm protection here, or we rip boots steady... Already got this looked after for the stock arms. Maybe you can get this on aftermarket arms but, f that already spent money there once.
Hammer there would be tough. The skid is braced by itself with a step in them right at this point. I would think you would just swing yourself into a blugened mess with sore wrists

But seriously.. I would just cut them off. Pull the sliders flip them over pour some water on them and cut with a skill saw.

Its hard for me to tell from the picture but it doesnt look like the sliders are all the way against the fender well. I have the same sliders and just loosened all the clamps slightly and took a hammer and smacked it a few times until it was firmly agaimst the fender well and then tightened them back up.
Awesome reply never even thought that this was an optuon until you mentioned it. I pulled the skid and verified no rubbing without it. The clearance at full lock looks like 3/8 to 1/2" without the skid. My otherside does seem a lot tighter to the fender than the drivers side was.
Tires measure about 27.25 x 10.375 now. But they do have about 300 miles on them as they were used.
I am going to try to put skid back on tight to fender and see how we make out
You guys are awesome. In my monent of pissed off panic you got me right through it lol. I was able to get enough from moving the skid back.They don't fit by much as seen in the pic...but they don't rub and that is all that matters.
Glockmeister if you were close I would be handing you a beer right now. Cheers have a great weekend.
