... no vibrations or tire rub yet and i drove it a lot today and i drove it like usual like a wild man
I really like it, looking good. The acid test (I'm not joking, totally serious) drive 65-mph through DFW airport terminal access road both ways, because of the shitty paving job the truck will develop a rhythmic bouce and you will probably rub the tire on the fender lip, especially on the northbound leg. After I had this happen to me I dialed-up another quarter-inch of tire clearance and have not had the problem since. :thumbs:

i guess you and i both sacrafice tires and ride quality for looks then LOL. i am missing peices of my toyos from my fenders, and my tires have over time created a recess in my fenders from slamming into them so much. i actually have a video of my truck goin 60 over some dip in the road, and the front tires stop spinning for a second :jester: im in the ballpark of 1-1 1/2 fingers off the fenders. it looks sick..... and who needs tires anyways right?

You're good, there shouldn't be any rubbing; I thought you had less clearance than that.
