Quick question.

If I lift my truck a few inches to get 35s under it, do I need to worry about wheel spacers for turning or will I be ok?

I have a level kit, 2 inch, my 35's do rub on the springs on full turn. I do not have any spacers.

You need a rim with correct back spacing so you do not turn into the spring.
