    Hi all, I just put new wheels and tires on my 05. I took off my stock 17" rims and BF all-terrain LT245/75R17 tires. Replaced them with Fuel Tactic 1790 17" rims and BF all-terrain KO LT245/75R17.

    New tires are rubbing, the worst is on the passenger side. The breaks are now pulling left and pulsating on harder stops.

    Any ideas?

    I am going to pull the mudflaps and that's where they were rubbing (told the wife I need a suspension lift and it seems to be working so keep that quiet) but I guess my question is if the tires are the same size how can this be? Same thing with the brakes, perfectly fine on the way there pulling to the right on the way back.

    Left or right?

    Doesn't really matter, but maybe the wheel lug nuts were put on too tight, warping the rotors?

    Thanks, I'll check that. It's a possibility.
