Got them in today. They are seriously strong and Fabtech quality. Pic shows the difference between oem bar and Fabtech.
Will get them installed in the next day or so with pictures.

These are to allow for bigger tires?

Bigger tires, yes.

Also, for when wheel spacers or low/negative offset wheels are used to “push” the tire further out toward the fender.

When your wheels are turned, the tires will be pushed toward the crash bars, often making contact.

Does the bumper have to be removed? If so, was it easy enough to remove bumper?

What sucks is I only need extra room on the rears. Not going to get a set just for the rears. I'm gonna notch them out with my plasma tomorrow and box it back with the cut off piece.

They are tough cutting for sure. Once they are out it is easy. I used a jig saw with carbide tipped blades. You will go through a few of them fyi.

You had to cut to remove old ones but did new ones just slide into place or did you have to loosen bumper or anything?
