    I'm curious who has a similar setup and what trimming was done to get rid of running. I have a toytec lift ~ 3 inches. 295/70/17. Pinch well hasn't been flattened, and a CMC was done. The rubbing is only at the bottom of the flare around the bottom bolt. I'll flatten the pinch weld in the future. Mainly concerned with the fender flare. I'm debating cutting out the bottom in line with the lower bolt. May or may not add rokblokz.... Any thoughts on options? Will cutting that much of the flare cause issues?

    If you had just gone with a 285 wouldn’t have to done any of that or very minimal. Ah the trouble a 1/2” can cause.

    True, but then I couldn't gloat about my larger tires! But for real, 22.8 inches bothered me deep down. I wouldn't be able to say I had 33 inches tires. So yeah, I'm that guy. lol
