2001 7.3 4x4 lifted
Truck currently has 22 inch rim with a 325/50 22 that currently makes contact with the driver side front spring. Wondering what size tire and rim combo to avoid hitting front spring. I prefer not to use spacers any suggestions?
Thanks

What is the overall diameter of the tire and the rim width and back spacing? Different tire manufacturers/models will have slightly different OD's of the same "size" tire.
I have a Nitto Trail Grapplers 35x12.5/20 with an actual OD of 35.04" on 20x10 rims and 4.5" back spacing and have no rubbing issues at all with a 3" lift. If fact at full lock I have about 1" of clearance between the tire and the spring and fender wells. I'm sure it gets closer during articulation - but no rubbing.
