That's a nice set-up man. See the wheels are 17's, what are you running from a level/life perspective ?

Man you're truck is so nice I wanted you to share your life's guiding principals so I could model them. [emoji6]

 

Actually, it's just a typo. Should have been level/lift.

295s on 0mm offset with a level will rub doing anything but straight highway driving.

Plenty of people on here running them to tell otherwise.

Yes they all claim "minimal". I had them and swapped down to 285. Still rubs the mud flaps at 2.5".

Tire brand/tread matter for sure. I have 275/60R20 and everyone swore they wouldn't rub with a level (some people even said they wouldn't rub without the level).

 

My duratracs rubbed the carpet liner...

I'm actually surprised by that. I have tires taller than that (same width) and mine dont rub now with a level and didn't rub before either.

 

but i'm not running duratracs.

It's not necessarily the tire size but the corner lugs you need to look at. Some tires round in before starting the lugs and some start on the side wall. Typically a more aggressive tire will have the lugs starting from the sidewall which can rub. It's a major difference between a passenger/AT tire and an MT tire like the Duratrac.

What is your lift set-up?

Caster and camber can also affect where and if it rubs.

No rubbing. Tires are a little cushy so makes for a good ride36749cafd4e22d50313e619f525be66e.jpg55f247135b29a33d53de135704051ea2.png

Let me know how the Falkens fit if you go that route. I've settled on Falken AT3s and Methods but torn between P285/70R17 (33x11.5) on 0 offset Methods or trying to cram those 305/65R18 on either -12 or +18 Methods. The P rated 17's would be way cheaper/more practical (and 16 pounds lighter) for me but I know I'd be happier with the 305's. Want real world feedback though!
