I'm in a very similar situation as you. I'm on Fox 2.0 and with a canopy, and looking to get a little lift in the rear. How is the ride with the Shackle on Stock leafs? Any issues with shutter or needing to adjust the pinion angle after install? Ideally, I'd like to jump to the OME 1.7 Leaf, but...

I have the regular size on mine, and love how they keep the side clean. Judging by your tire size, the XL's would probably fit better and give you the added protection.
I'll ship the wheels with tires for the same $350. Looking to get these out of the house without needing to make an extra stop at the tire stop to have them unmounted.
