I have a 99 dodge ram 1500, 4wd, 3 inch suspension lift with 35 nitto mud grapplers. I realize these tires are too big for the smaller lift, but what seems to be my torsion bar looks likemit will be in the way no matter what size tires I put on there. Is there anything I can do to stop the scrubbing? If there is, I would love to know. Thanks guys.

 

wheel spacers

 

Yep, spacers or get offset rims.

 

How much are spacers? 16 y/o... On a budget.. Lol

 

$120 off ebay + shipping

 

If u wanted different wheels now you have a good excuse lol.

 

Bad choice to get 35s. Wait until you need to change those. You are talkin 300 per tire...at least.

Get used to the rubbing, and premature tire wear.

 

Even my 285's (32.8") rubbed the lower control arm before I got some 1.5" wheel spacers. If you have the option of getting some new wheels I'd go that route, I hear that wheel spacers can be hard on your ball joints. I have not problems with it yet (knock on wood!) but nice new wheels would be sweet.

 

The hub/bearing assemblies are what suffer on the front axle with wheel spacers..... What rims do you have on the truck now? If they aren't stock, what is the backspacing?

 

hmmm. i bet im having the same problem. i put some 285/75/16's up from 265's and i hear something rubbing when i turn! maybe i should put the MT classics back on and sell the black american racing rims?
