    Actually, i'm going .5" more on the front w/ the SAWS once they're ready.
    I'm gonna leave the rear, I like the nose high look on pre runners. If my truck was 4x4 I'd want it level but shifting a little weight to the rear technically helps w/ the traction a little bit. Plus I"m not after more height just for looks, tryin to stay as low as possible. My wheeling is usually fast so i'm tryin to keep the low center of gravity.

    But an extra 1/2" in the front will help w/ the rubbing. These damn 33" tires rub on the plastic big time when full compression off road, drives me nuts. Eventually I'm just gonna blow it all out and go w/ glass fenders

    I can't find any AR or ATX wheel on discount tire website. I must have the wrong one?

    I have the Nitto TGs 285/60/18 & they rub like the OP's. Hoping the lift coming this wknd will resolve that. I'd just keep the TGs, what's the treadwear on the other tires? TGs are 520 or 540.

    What size are your rims? I'm confused because you mentioned discount tire ordering the wrong tire size 285-70-17 is what you ordered and you got 285-75-16, how does that fit?

    I ordered the wheels through discount tire. You wont find american racing on their website you'll only find the AR ATX artillery on tirerack.com.

    The tread ware is right up there with TG's. Time to try something different. Have some faith, these hankooks are just as good, if not better.
    CHECK OUT these reviews.. u might change ur mind..

    The Teflon wheels are 17", a 285/75 r 16 will not fit on a 17" wheel.
