Patshea how did you fit 38's with 8in lift? Can you take pics of your trimming?
 
Hey I got my tires on today and they rub pretty bad. I will try to get some pics up tonight. Did that shop do alot of trimming or what? Cause I have 9in of lift and they still rub.

Since he's not on, I'll answer for him. All he did was cut a little section off of the bottom front bumper valance.

kalebarellano May 23, 2007 07:25 PM

Can you also measure the height of your truck? Maybe from the floor to the bottom of the mirror? I just took some pics, I will get them up in a few minutes.

patshea098 May 23, 2007 07:34 PM

what wheels and what size tires do you have

kalebarellano May 23, 2007 07:43 PM

Rims are the same as yours, 18x10 Mazzi's, and the tires are 38x15.5R18 ATZ's.

Here are some pictures:

kalebarellano May 23, 2007 08:16 PM

Thanks, bferrel.

Thumper I remember reading that you got the bilsteins, I also think I read you were going to order king coil overs in a group buy. Is there any chance you want to sell me your bilsteins? Let me know.

Thanks

In the photo below, you need to trim at an angle JUST like this \. It's common sense, just think about what will NOT cause your tires to rub (not intending to be rude). You will need to trim the inside rear fender as well. Can you measure the REAL WORLD diameter of your tires and also measure from the ground to the bottom of your mirror? Thanks.
