Rubbing A Bit With 305/55/20's And 3.5" Kit

[CanadianT/A]

I'm having rubbing issues with my 305/55r20 Mickey Thompson Baja's on my Sierra even though I have the Zone Off Road 2" levelling kit with 1.5" BL. I am running American Racing Maxims +19mm offset.

 

Anyone know any tricks to make them clear other than trimming?

another 1.5" of lift will do it

Would adding a set of 1.5" spacers help. Was wondering if it put my wheel farther out may give me clearance?

It may, but spacers no good IMO. They put the wheel farther out from the hub and puts un-needed stress on the front end parts. I'd trim in a heartbeat compared to wheel spacers.

No it will rub more if you push the tires out. In fact the closer the wheels are to factory +31 offset the less you will rub.

 

Your options:

Change wheels

Smaller tires

Add more lift

Trim

Man, those tires will fit with a leveling kit and zero rub!!!

 

 

I definately wouldn't change wheels, as I don't think the cost to reward ratio is acceptable. You could however do as suggested and get a smaller tire and sell your current ones, or go with a larger body lift. Of course it won't cost you anything to trim.
