Hey all,

Just got my rims and tires added yesterday and the rubbing is extreme. I rub on both the front and back of the fender, as well as the stock step rails.
The tires are 285/75r16 on 16x9 -12offseet moto metals. Pics below;

Here I am catching about a 1/2~inch of the chrome bumper corner (the actually edge, eating my new tires :whymewhyme:) on both sides.

Then here, you can see where it rubbing - the screw itself, and everything below it.

Not sure how I should go about trimming where the step rail and fender are being rubbing. The bumper, I'm just gonna cut about an inch off at a clean angle.

Why not just crank the torsion bars up a little bit and add a small block to the rear?

I'm already leveled. Here's the spacing from wheel to fender, front and back. Also the cv angles, think I could away with another 1.5" without some really bad geometry?

I'm cranked in the front with 2" rear blocks in the back & 33's. Been this way for a while now daily driving with 285/75/16 Kelly Safari TSR's without issues. Depending on how worn your TB are will determine how much crank you'd need.

That's really weird. My 285/75/r16s never rubbed anything even when I was stock with zero crank

This was zero crank

well 16x9's with 4.5" bs (12 offset) may be the culprit. Also, look at this... not sure???? Left side I stick out about 1/2", right side is tucked about 1/4"....

I had to trim at full crank. But my rims are deep dished and 15x10s with 33x12.5s. I trimed the bumper and valence and I took a screw out of my running board and let the tire push my rear of the front fender in a little bit
