    UGH! Those are the only rims you shouldn't have painted. I think they looked awesome the way they were on every truck I've seen on this forum that had those rims. Viet's comes to mind immediately.

    My truck is lifted about 2" all around with mud flaps removed. I had rubbing issues up front (mainly on the mud flaps) when turning and the suspension was traveling even a little bit before the lift. Now no rubbing issues at all.
