    I just bought new tires with custom rims and the tires are rubbing too much, my question is that if i place a wheel spacer will the rubbing stop???
    it already has a 2 inch leveling kit

    It depends on what and where it is rubbing.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Where is it rubbing? The UCA? The body? Is it rubbing all the time? Only when you turn? We need more information before we can help.

    I couldn't possibly give you an answer (because I have no idea about tire rubbing solutions), but the lack of details like tire size and wheel size (including offset) and such seem like integral information for people to even begin to help you.

    so the wheels are rubbing in the UCA wile making a full turn. For example, the while turning the tire rubs but once it catches a little bump it rubs. Now i already cut in to the plastic but it is no enough

    I think you could probably get away with spacers.

    Do you have the box the wheels came in? You can take a picture. You'll have to do a cmc at least I'm guessing.

    Use 3/4" or 1" spacers. (Bora)

    You need less back spacing to prevent the rubbing on the UCA. However be prepared to trim the the bottom of the fender flares on the front (bumper part) and the rear (cab mount part) and possibly a cab mount chop since less back spacing will cause the wheel/tire to sit further out causing more rubbing on the exterior.

    If the rubbing is on the upper control arms, wheel spacers will take care of it. When the truck got lifted it added angle to your CVs, which pulls the wheels/tires in towards the diff...right into the UCA. You can fix this with wheels that have appropriate backspacing, or just use wheel spacers. With the 255s, theres a decent chance you wont have to do too much other trimming if your alignment is good
