Default Tires rub

I put a 2" rough country leveling kit on my 2015 and 315 70's on my stock 17" wheels. Everything was fine until put 2" wheel spacers on. Now it rubs bad. Can I fix this with different rims? I want a wide stance

Haha. I want a wide stance. So not an option. Looking for a way to make it work.

You need to figure out where and when it is rubbing.

Yup, find out whats rubbing and cut it out or hit it with a hammer to get more clearence. I'd suggest NOT removing the crash bars if your truck has them. More info about your trim and cab configuration would help.

a spacer mimics a different offset of wheels. youre going to hit the crash bars with a combo of your spacers, or a new wider wheel with more offset. so your only real option is to cut the crash bars and lose your legs, or go higher.

You're gonna have to go down in size. That's exactly what I'm doing, right now. Lol
