    Your first post says 265. Now they are 275 or what one is a typo? If you're on 275s, yes you're gonna need to do a bit of trimming...

    Ahh 275. You originally posted 265. You shouldn't be rubbing with 265/70/17. That's what I'm running with a 0 offset.

    Off to a great start. Maybe relax a touch.

    So, go drive through a mud puddle and get it all nice and dirty (or use sidewalk chalk). Do a short drive and make it rub then look for the clean spots. Use a Dremel to remove hard plastic. Use a heatgun to reshape softer plastic liners. Lose mudflaps. Use YouTube for step by step videos. Use Google to find 5 versions of this thread.

    Yes
    OP some advice in this forum you’re likely to get atleast 1-2 sarcasm posts per page. Weed through em or else people will not be keen to offer advice. And definitely don’t go after ones trying to help you out such as @hiPSI. Good luck.
