Default leveling kit help

i have a 06 quad cab, with 17x9 helo's ( they have 1 more inch of backspacing than stock). i tired to mount a set of 315/70r17 today and they r rubbing on the back of the front fender where the mudflap mounts. my question is will the leveling kit fix this or do i need to buy a lift. also if the levling kit fixes this should i go with a kore system or go with one on ebay.

i found one on ebay for 86, no shocks, dont know if i need new shocks or not, its made by top gun customz. does anyone know anything about this manufacturer?

My 05 QC with Dick Cepek FC II 325/50R20 mountedon Demoda 20x10 rub the mud flaps on mine, only do to deformed flapand are thicker then most flaps.I do have 3" lift up front with the Kore Chase system. A simple cheap2"levelling kit ought to solve your problem.

I have stock rims with 33/12.50/17 cooper muds no rubbing at all, but i have the leveling kit. Im sure if you level you will have no more problems. You will be suprised what 2 lil inches does for clearance.
