still not totally sure where you are talking about. I want to figure out exactly where you are talking about cuz i'll be needing new tires next year probably, and those look great, but i won't be taking a grinder anywhere near my truck is it on the inside part of the fender flare itself? or the fender itslef? or the fender shroud? thanks

dont know proper terms but part of the inside of fender closest to top of side wall of tire
doesnt touch but we did grind off a little for insurance
with 6 to 7 inch travel c notch installed might lower even more and can be done now quite easy
front end rubbing is more of a issue than rear
if you have a full turn on front wheels and start a steep climb with 3 inch drop coils your likelyhood of rubbing would be greater

hope this helped

aight thanks. Do you think i'd have any trouble on my 00 with just a 2" rear drop then? Still not sure exactly where your talking about but the 00's don't have fender flares so not sure if that would make a difference or not. LoL.

how much lower are you planning on going? aren't you already at 2/4? (3/4 kit)
i saw my friend's 02 HD today with the 3/4 kit and OMG!!! i was drooling! The pics do it no justice with that much of a drop! Looked bad @$$!!!!

what would you do to get more drop? different hangers? or would you get leaf springs? and then the western chasis Aarms up front? thats another 2" right there

dont think you will have any trouble with 295 tires and they will look deadly on your truck

suspension man said i could add on to shackels or hangers with my setup and have plenty of room left

really helps handling and hugs curves like a corvette

those rims look nice, but i still like the stock 20" HD rims over those 22's. I dunno, they just look too plain to me with just the 5/10 flat spokes and flat dish design. but hey, thats what makes our trucks unique. still looks cool.
