slammed on 20's! wheel well ideas?
 
so with the taller tire up front i am definately getting some rub, well, i plan on going lower, way lower, up front i have a 275/45/20, i know they are going to rub, i was going to remove the inner wells, and run some trailer fenders inside, but looking to see what some of you guys may have done? plus, will i have any turning problems? new to the lowering with oversized wheels..thanks for any help in advanced!

you can go 5 inches in the front and run a 255/35/20 ..I did 6 in up front but had to section out the front wells..but it looks real mean.

the easiest would be getting a smaller tire... that tire is about 2" taller than what most people seem to be running the front of theirs.

yea, it is, but i had some on the truck and didnt like the ride, plus i drive my truck every day and there are tons of pot holes/dips/ and cracks in the street, and these ride so much better...
