Can anyone give advice?
Ok here it is I put on my on my lift last night....Everything was going smooth until I went to put on my Tires.....
I am Running 35x15.50x15 TSL Super Swampers with a 15x12.50 Eagle series 102 wheel. Ok the problem I put them on and they rub the tie Rod ends on the front. Does anyone know why this happen? |

Re: Can anyone give advice?
You have too much backspacing on rim. Looks like a set of wheel spacers are in your future.

But remember the front end is already wider than the rear so if you get spacers for just the front it will look like it is dog walking big time! |

Re: Can anyone give advice?
does it hit hard enough you can't hardly get the tire on or just slightly? If just a little get some of those 1/4" spacers and you hardly wouldn't notice any stance difference

Re: Can anyone give advice?
the funny thing it only hit on One side the passenger side! I think the knuckle is bent It has to be because the driverside does not hit

Re: Can anyone give advice?
I had the same problem with my 10" wheels. They didnt hit the rims but the first time i rolled the tierods knocked off my wheel weights... oops. So switched to sticky weights and clearanced my tie rods ever so slightly just in case... problom solved.

IIWM and if they were still new, I'd return the wheels to get the correct fit the 2nd time. (IIWM = if it were me )
