I'd be curious to know what some of you (who have rubbing issues) have for rims. When I had 31x10.5 tires on stock alloy rims and no lift, mine never rubbed. After I swapped out to 33x12.5 tires on 15x8 rims and put in a 2" body lift they still never rubbed. I have even more room now after putting in a 2" suspension lift. Just eye-balling it, I have no doubt I could put 35s on (and likely will when my 33s wear out) and still not rub under heavy flex, even with the swaybar removed.

Of course, having the right gearing for it helps me, too. [Linked Image]

As it sits currently, with 33x12.5s:

I had those exact same 31x10.5s on Alloys with no rubbing, and the 34x12.5s have rubbed largely because they are TSLs. The massive outer lugs that stick out a lot further than any normal mud terrain rubbed like crazy before the torsion bar crank. And now with the body lift you have to go to about full flex to get them to rub,and even then its very rare. I guess you could also contribute it to the 34"s being 1" bigger than 33"s. But its safe to say I don't plan on having any rubbing issues with the 34x9.5s on the alloys. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
