TIRE RUB!! HELP

[bko4x4er]

OK SO EVERYONE KNOWS 33'S WILL FIT WITH MINOR RUBBING. SEE I HAVE 33S STOCK AND THEY RUB ON FULL LOCKED TURNS AND SUCH BUT THESE ARENT A VERY MEATY TIRE. I AM PLANNING ON GETTING SOME SS TSL'S. WITH LOTS OF CLEATS. WHEN THEY RUB, THOSE CLEATS WILL CATCH LIKE CRAZY. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO TO STOP THE RUBBING . I HAVE ALREADY BOUGHT A 3'' BODY LIFT BUT THAT DOESNT EFFECT THE RADIUS ARMS AND SUCH.

WHAT DO I DO?

Me thinks you need a suspension lift. You can also get new radius arms that aren't as straight when you do the lift but it will add big $'s. If you're looking for a cheap fix, you can get wheel spacers and see if they help.

You're going to spend as much (or more) on those tires alone as you'd spend on the deluxe suspension lift, so why not do the suspension lift?

well id like to get new tires because the mastercraft coursers i have in the front are almost bald while the ones in the rear are 50%. if i lift it, im still gona have bald tires, thus still not going anywhere. if i have tready tires and lift or no lift im gettin somewhere better.
