Get rid of the 7" or 8" wheels you have and get some 10's. Or if you have 8's with 4" or more backspacing, go to an 8" wheel with 3.5" bs. You can get away with 4" on the 10's. Wheel fitment is a science, or occasionally blind luck... My 33 14.5 rubbed on mine when I had 8" wheels with 3.5" bs, but the 35 14.5 did not with the 10" 3.5" bs wheels I have now. I got rid of the crappy bias tires and run 35 12.5 BFG MT's now. The drop arm will not solve your problem.
