Those things have to rub...
I have 305/65/18's which equate less then a .5 inch difference than your 305/30/26's. I'm at the factory 4x4 height and mine rub. When you say the don't rub have you actually tried driving on those and making turns?
The only thing i can see that would be differnt is the wheel offset. Any idea what that is?
Why don't we have any more pics yet?

He should be putting the 24's up for sale because they rub really bad when turning the wheel and parking his truck is like parking a school bus now since he cant fully turn the wheel

I know for a fact you will too

Sitting it did not rub, driving it did not rub, and rolling 50 it did not rub. I currently only have 2 of the wheels, that is why there is no more pics. Believe what you want. We pinned the inner fender back about an inch on the back side, and when the suspension compresses, the tires camber in at the top, therefore it does not rub. You guys rubbing on 24s must have weak springs or something, because with the Bilteins, and the sway bars, my truck is a stiff bitch. I am currently on a set of 24s. It may be another month before the other 2 26s get here, then I will get better pics. I will post pics with the 24s on it tomorrow. Gotta love gettin a set of 24s for 15oo bucks delivered with Yoko Parada Spec Xs. I got these yesterday to tide me over till the 26s get here.

It is all in the offset and what not guys, and not being afraid to cut some **** and move it around. I actually plan on bagging this truck on the 26s. You guy that rubs on 24s needs a smaller tire or something. I am on a 305/35/24 right now, no rub. There are a few other people on here as well with the same size that dont have any issues.

I'm running bilstiens up front and beltech 2" drop coils with 275/45/22's and my tires rub the inner fender liner when I compress the suspension HARD and my tires are only 31.7 tall, my tires also camber inside the fender lip no rubbing there, and can turn lock to lock with no rubbing. but if I hit a hard dip in the road the tread of my tires will rub the inner fender liner. but that's only if I'm compresing the suspension really hard. I wouldn't doubt the rear axles hitting the bump stops at the same time. just my personal experience here. but it seams that anything bigger than a 31.5 inch tire with a 2 inch drop up front is going to rub at the limits of suspension travel

I was looking for help before I spent 5k on wheels to find out they rub like crazy. Like I said, thank god for supporting wheel vendors in my area to let me try one out first. I am no pro, but I know a little bit. I have built trucks, just not full size ones, here is my last truck that was totalled in Feb.
