Question about tire rub
So I got a great deal on 31x10 tires on 15x8 steel wheels. All 4 for 200 even. My question is that I am about to install a 1.5" lift on my cherokee... Will I rub? Or will it just rub if I am making real sharp corners or flexing? This is my DD and I dont want rub on normal driving. If it does rub where will it rub?

I think the rule of thumb for a 31" tire is a 3" lift.. But how much different do you think the 1.5" will do vs a 3"?

Do you hear banjos?
Where is this 1.5" lift coming from?? I have never heard of it before, is why I ask. I'd say, just go with at least a 2" BB, then you should ok with a 31" tire. If some rubs a little...cut it off. That's what I've got...

I bought a 1.5" rc lift. I was going to just do 235/75/15 but now im getting a great deal on some 31"s. So thats why I am asking.

No, the plasma cutter will fry your paint about inch beyond the cut, and they don't thin metal cleanly. The weapon of choice is a body saw, or an angle grinder armed with a cut off wheel.
