I've been running 2inch level with 305/55/20 grapplers on a 20x9 with a +1mm offset. I rub on the rear side of the wheel well and it is getting on my nerves! So my question would be, does having a 3 inch block in the rear cause the front end to sit lower? Would removing that block make more clearance up front and solve this issue or am I just screwed?

 

Uh oh! I'm about to run the exact same setup minus the rear blocks. I was under the impression it would rub on the lower valance not the rear. Is it horrible? Is it fixable with just trimming plastic or is sheet metal in the way?

 

At first I didn't think it was a big deal but it gets very very irritating especially in parking lots. I don't think it is fixable. I was hoping maybe when the tires wore out a bit it would go away but 8000miles now and I'm starting to notice marks on the tires from where it rubs. So hoping someone can chime in about the rear block and maybe that will help

 

I based my setup on this post. Hopefully removing your rear blocks is the answer!

 

Bump

 

Removing the rear blocks would do nothing for the front of the truck. Why not just trim the plastic a little bit?

 

Probably the wheel specs causing the rubbing. Those wheels will stick out about 2 inches more than stock and may cause the rubbing on the lower wheelwells. I had the same problem on my '04 truck...ideal wheel specs would have been a 9 inch wheel with around 5 3/4 inches of backspace or a +19 offset. Just a guess!

 

I have a rubbing issue too.... I was charged criminally. Oh wait, uh F150 forum. Wrong forum.

 

Lol smh

 

Wonder if adjusting the caster would help also?
