    So my truck has been at a shop getting my lift put on for a few days now. I just received a call saying that my stock 265-70-17 tires are rubbing... WTF ?!?! HOW? Anyone have this same problem? I want to stick 17" Rockstars 2 with a -12 offset on 33s but now I don't want to spend the money if they wont work.

    Assuming its a drop bracket lift...you'll need wheel spacers to clear the 17s

    3" lift Freedom Off-road adjustable coilovers 5100’s out back with AAL TRD Pro wheels w/ 285.75.16 KO2’s Freedom Off-road UCA’s 4xInnovations front bumper (on order!)
    What's the back space on the rock star 2 wheel compared to your stock wheel?

    So are you saying that your stock wheels and tires didn't rub before the lift but do rub after the lift?

    Depending on what the wheel specs are on the new wheels depends if you'll need spacers or not.

    They didn't tell me but yeah the UCA looks like that It was rubbing. They put on a 1" spacer and just got my truck back and I'm pleased with the way it looks... can't wait to get my rims and tires
