Most people say that the most noticable rubbing with 35's and OEM wheels is up front. THe tires rub the frame slightly at full steering lock.

hey yeah i know what ur taking about i have a 01 supercrew and did the same i jacked up my torsion bars, and all i had to do was cut some of the front out, but i might end up cutting something else maybe. it rubs when i back up and when i only turn my wheels a certain way when i back up, and only at certain times. LOL

here are some pics

My 315's don't touch anywhere. All I have done is a AS 2.5 kit. Stock everything else.

35's pretty much allways rub unless u got very little backspacing on your rims still gonna smack the top of wheel well if you hit any bumps better to add a body lift to make the diff 2 or 3in
