That's weird, I had 32's on my truck and never had single rub. I was upgrading to 33's the day she caught fire. I'm sure those would've been the same, no rub issues.

They wouldn't rub in normal conditions. But I go wheeling with some jeep guys and flex it real good. And I do some minor jumping; ask D and shadyluke! haha. D has a video of it, I don't think he ever posted it.

My truck never experienced "normal conditions" until about a year ago when I started using it as my DD. I bought it new and a quarter of it's miles were from my dad's mountain. Elevation 1100' and his house is in the valley below. I got nasty trails and rode my truck hard. Only thing I noticed was my rear was starting to sag. I dunno if it was the 200lb toolchest full of junk or what. The front end was perfectly fine. Even still, the rear never rubbed and I've had that sucker on three wheels ready to roll haha.
