I'm looking at a set of those in that exact size. I would like to see how many miles you can get out of a set of those.
When you say slight rub, you mean they rub the upper control arm? I'm going to go with an aftermarker 4.5" backspaced wheel so I don't think I will have any rubbing issues.

Thanks for posting...that's exactly what I want...but I have a 2" level.

I guess a small wheel spacer would solve your rubbing issue?

The rub is so minor it doesnt bother me. The wheel has to be fully locked to rub and I dont want wheel spacers lol I throw enough rocks on my truck without them.

why is it that your 35x12.50x20 look so much meatier and MORE tire than this one with the same wheels and same tire size?

Yours has more wheel well clearance, his tires look freshly cleaned on the sides (black) with light colored dust on the tread. These things are creating the illusion of his looking "meatier" than yours.
