Man thats weird, and they rub without the spacer? The only rubbing I worry about is my tire rubbing valence because I dont want to trim enough off...Im not very good at wheel backspacing and such, so I have no idea what to tell you...

Great looking trucks. I am thinking of either leveling or lifting mine.
