I have the same configuration on my 05 SD. 17X9 M/T Classic II w/35X12.50R17LT Baja Claw Radials and have not experienced any rub whatsoever. Hope this helps.

Hey man, thanks for checking in on me and asking. Yeah got them on and they rub on the spring pack a little at full crank. I can live with it for now. I am running the Cooper STT and I am experiencing the same vibration/ shaking that I had on my Silverado so it has to be the Coopers. They are awesome off road and look bad *** but can't stand intermittent shaking. I am thinking about trying to move to BFG KM2 or anything that is M/T and runs smooth. Here are the only pics I have for now with it lifted and new shoes, hopefully it will snow soon and can do a little better.

The truck looks great Clay! I actually looked into getting the Cooper STT's also, but they couldn't price match good enough for me, so I got the BFG KM2's. Here's a look at what I run. 16x8 Centerlines, 315/75/16's and they rub at full lock also, not bad....I can live with it

I love the look of those M/Ts that would half to be the only set of aftermarket wheels I would go with even though yours looks pretty good Travis. I have n ever seen those before.

Negative JD, that one was from last summer on the only day it did rain.

The front just came through here, and its too damn cold to go out and take pics now. (40's with 25mph winds, and misting rain)

Cold? Man big guy, its was 26* this morning when I left home and as of 10:17am we have reached a balmy 33* Nothing like what cold some of these guys get though.

And, from living in Longview I know how fast those fronts come up, its crazy! I didn't learn what I real downpour was till I was down there. 10 min and there is flooding.

You all didn't get any of the severe storms that hit GA did you? We had a record setting rainfall yesterday and today it has never quit raining but we needed it. How are those Hancook tires for the ride and wear?
