    Just got a pair 5100 with stock spring for now while my fox coilovers are getting serviced.
    Setted them at the highest it will go 2.5 with stock SR5 springs no spacers
    Rubbing starts at 70% steering and dumpy condition.
    I also have 1.5inch wheels spacers installed. Rims are BFD 18x9 tires are general tires at2
    I just wondering are those wheel spacers cause the rubbing? I have seen lots people run even bigger tires with same lifting but why do i get this issue?:confused::confused::confused::confused:

    Helppppppp!

    do you have mud flaps on? also did you trim the front bummer some?

    these are the most 2 common causes of rubbing from my understanding.


    also dont think you need the spacers for these wheel/tire setup.

    BFD's and 1.5" wheels spacers? Why the spacers? Those wheels have a lot clearance and already stick out 2" further than stock rims. Lose the spacers then weep and worry no more

    Too much spacer (if needed at all)!
