im thinkin about installing a 6 inch fabtech lift and was woundering would 35s rub when tires r turned all the way on the front and i heard of people having alignment problems when having the lift installed, so what kind of alignment issues do i need to look out for???

 

It will depend on the wheel width and backspacing you use. If you use a wide wheel with shallow bs you may have minor rubbing.

 

I have a 6 inch fabtech lift on my 99 f-150, with 35s , 16x10 wheels and they do rub on the bottom of the front bumper (rubber part) . I took a hacksaw and sawed the corners off at a 45 angle, smoothed it up with sandpaper, looks factory

 

I had two different set of wheels on my truck before I sold it. I had minor rubbing with my KMC VD Monsters because of the smaller BS than the Helo Maxx 6's. I did a little trimming on the plastic piece below the bumper and rubbing went away.

 

ok thanks so how wide of a tire can u go with out rubbing on the swing arms and/or other parts, besides the front plastic bumper?

 

I've got a 6" fabtech on my 02 and its damn near impossible to keep an alignment on it for more than 5k miles. With a set of 285/70/17 BFD All-terrains on factory rims, i get rubbing at the steering extremes only...

 

no rubbing with 35x18 with 4.5'' backspace

 

and thats turned all the way drivin and with a stock truck with only a levelin kit??

 

i Have 35x12.5.18 on a stock wheel and a 3" leveling kit and it only rubs if the tire is turned all the way and bouncing on rough ground.
