I'm getting it all put together on the 25th. That first pic of my last post has me concerned about rubbing. I chose 34's because I've read a lot of posts here about guys running them with no rubbing issues, but I'm skeptical after seeing that picture. The stocks are only 245/75r17, equal to a 31.5" tire.

On those stock 20's, you should be fine. There are lots of guys running that size with a level on the 2500HD's.

Yeah, I'll be a bit cautious for a while. I won't mind trimming plastic if I have to but I def don't want to cut into metal.

I have 275/65/20 Duratracs on stock suspension 2500 Duramax. Had to trim the mud flaps a little on the inside for full lock clearance, but no other rubbing issues. Stock Denali 20" rims.

Looks sharp. You say you're not leveled and running 34" tires with some plastic rub. I wonder if the Duramax's ride a little higher than the gassers?

I wouldn't mind seeing more pics showing the front clearances.

I'll try to get some for you tonight.

Here's a few fronts and a better of the truck in better daylight. Let me know if you want to see something specific. I have the flat GM mudflaps and you can see where I had to remove some for full lock turning. It doesn't rub at all.2151fa30a815419166973c66c7261660.jpgd7209c730001e9981042da2fc52fd7f8.jpg8eafa448198538d99e2ebb5f1c182b8a.jpg653c337f00d0447978af900adc30968b.jpg

Thanks Dab, surprising amount of room in there for stock ride height. I have the heavier duty mud flaps and might need to cut those.

 

Do you have the part number of yours? I appreciate all your info.
