Default Passenger side tire rubs 33's...

Set up:
6 inch lift all four corners, bilsteins all four corners, rocky road CAD, rocky road fixed lowers adjustable uppers, iron rock double shear track bar, iron rock tie rod, jks quick discos, dropped pitman arm, stock Ecco wheels, 33/12.5/15's
Just got the 33's put on and the passenger tire rubs the lower arm and coil when getting towards full lock. Drivers side appears fine as far as clearance. Trying to see what may be the issue? I know the rims need changed for a more negative offset. Could it be that the track bar is just a tad too long? Any ideas is appreciated. Thanks!

For that size of tire you need a 15x8" wheel with 3.75-4" of BS max for clearance. That's about all it could be if everything is adj. properly. Measure the setup on the track bar to see if its right and centered.


I ran 33x12:50x15's with a 3" lift with those size wheels stock U/LCA's and all was well. Now at 4.5" of lift and clear 35x12:50's on same wheel fine with Adj U/LCA's.

Adjustable track bar? Or fixed length?

He said Iron Rock Dbl. Shear I thought all the Dbl. Shear ones were adj. could be wrong.
