luky kid does your truck rub with 35's on 2inch leveling kit?

All you guys with 37's do they rub? CSG0485 I don't think so. There is a ton of clearance. I bought a set of 20x9 wheels from les schwabs and they said that I wouldn't have any problem running 35's. Just watch the offset of the wheel.

You'll be close, I had 35x12.50 on 8.5 wheels, can't remember offset exactly, but I was pretty close to the fender and front bumper on stock suspension, but never did rub without mud flaps. 37's on stock suspension, you might not rub driving straight, but other then that good luck LOL.

I just bought new 37x13.50 for my truck on 8.5 rims, 6" lift and they rub my control arms, VERY tight to my fender and front bumper. And if they were on stock rims like my old 37" they would hit the control arms even worse, but more bumper/fender clearance clearance.

Fair warning if you tow, haul etc make sure you get tires small enough they don't rub, you will want to hit yourself if your tires rub and you try to back up a trailer etc. Even in tight parking lots it is a downright pain. I am probably going up to 8" so I can clear the 37" properly.
