    I am planning to get Bilstein 5100's with OME springs set at 2.25 inches and a rear 1-inch block in the back. I was wondering if I would experience any rubbing if I put 275/70/R18 KO2 tire.

    Thanks for your help.

    What is the largest size tire/rim would you recommend? Also, what is a CMC?

    I THINK a 275/70R18 equates to like 33.2x10something diameter so I'd say about (at least) a 3" lift. You generally will need a 3" lift to clear 33s, and your tire is larger than that. CMC means Cab Mount Chop, most welders with experience can do this.

    Thanks for your help. With a 2.5 inch lift, what set up would you recommend?

    anything wider than a 265 will likely rub on the body mount/cab mount

    CMC/BMC is cab mount chop/body mount chop.

    It involves cutting a portion of it away.

    for what its worth...if you are doing UCAs you may still rub with a 265 lol.
    I've got a 265 70 17 on a 0 offset 8" wide wheel. And I rubbed on the fender liners after my lift. But thats because of how much the UCAs changed the ride

    lift doesn't really mean anything for a larger tire.
    for what its worth you can fit a 33 (255 85 16) on stock TRD Off road as long as you keep OEM wheel and no lift.
    as soon as you change any part of it no guarantee.

    Only time a lift might mean something is you won't rub on the UCAs. but that also comes down to back spacing.
    When it comes to anything larger than a 31.5" overall you run the likelihood of rubbing on the body mount.

    Lift doesnt help clear 275s. Its a width issue not a height issue.
