No not Blocks for the Rear i'm talking about spacers that go behind the wheels so the wheels stick out a little bit.I hears if you get those when you put 33"s on you wont have any rubbing issues... that is if you get the right size.... any help???
Ohhhhhhh those!

hey that helps but i still need the specs on someone who has a lifted Dak, I'm lookin as too the size i need to prevent rubbing... would a tire and rim shop be able to tell me like discount tire? idk does anyone know of disadvantages of having spacers?
I would think spacers would put more stress on the wheel studs by moving the wheel farther out on them.

i wouldnt get spacers for wheels. then the whole tire sits too far out and you might as well be sportin some gold datons. if you want to do things right, deal with it for now and save some cash, pic out some nice wheels you want, get them a little wider than stock size, and get the correct offset needed to complete the look your going for. also, since you want bigger tires (33s) and obviously dont want them to rub, you will need more than a leveling kit. one thing that is worth trying is this. early this past spring/summer we had MAJOR flooding here in oklahoma. i drove through so much water, the pressure of the water pushing against my wheel well fenders reshaped the inner fenders, and curved them in thus making less room for my tires. the outcome, my stock tires started rubbing pretty good. i went and told dodge my tires had started rubbing, and that i was on stock sized tires, and stock suspension so no way should they be rubbing (obviously i didnt tell them i had been driving through an average of 2' of water for extended periods of time throughout the 2months we had floods)....they ordered me some new inner wheel well fenders and stuck them on, and since the shape of them were now correct, the rubbing seized. now, to my point, you could try jacking your truck up, taking the front wheels off, and heating and pushing the fender wells in, towards the engine and front of the truck. even if it only sucked it up .25-.5 that would make wonders of a difference although i think you can suck her up more than that. you will need patience and possibly heat it up and use something to keep her pushed in overnight or somethin. may work, may not, but if you get spacers, and your tire sits too far outside of the truck (including getting the inner part of the tire too close to the outside) it will look like sh*t
Thanks for the advise, i deffinatlyDONT want the dayton look... not my style...When i gethome from Iraq i'm gonna put the level kitand body lift on, and i'll have to trywhat you suggested.... Any advise on the width of tires to go with it? 12.5? what are the width of the stock tires? I like the wide tire look. with the agressive tires..
there is a guy on cardomain his screen name is hawaiin something im not sure but he has a black quad cab lifted and with spacers and his doesnt have the dayton look at all so look at his and see what you think and if anything message him about it. Just my two cents
