ive got the 2" level kit, i have minimal rubbing on lower control arms with 34x12.50x16 super swampers. hope it helps.

yes stock rims. i do have 1/4" spacers to help (forgot to mention) but without them rubbing is still minimal steering lock to lock.if you ran 34x10.50x16 you shouldnt have rubbing. i am gong to go with 36x10.50x15 super swampers next. the rubbing should be same as with the 34x12.50 steering lock to lockno fender rubbing at all with the 34x12.50x16

ok so i was lookin at 315/75/r16 or 315/70/r16 which would be better

315x70x16 will be smaller i dont think you will rub. 33.4x12.4/16

315x75x16 will be bigger and you will have just a touch of rub on the lower control arm when steering is locked either direction but otherwise you will be fine. 34.6x12.4/16

Me i like big tires, i would go for the 315x75x16

i like the biggest i can get on there i dont have spacers tho was my concern but it looks like i can runn the 315/75/r16 ill have to get some prices on them once i get my brakes fixed and the leveling kit ordered and on:hyper:

yeah the larger tires will only rub on the lower links when at full turn. my swampers have huge lugs on the sides that attribute to the rubbing so regular tires probably wont make much noise.:thumbup2:

i plan on a agressive tread:woot:but i sure cant afford swampers:broke: but maby some other kind:thumbup2:

You have to remember that all tire manufacturers are gonna be a little different size to size. You can calculate the sizes but that really only gives you an idea.
