I have yet to install my 35" MT's on the Excursion but was wondering what issues I could possibly have with rubbing and how to fix it?

The new rubber is mounted on new 8" rims with better backspacing than stock, so I imagine the rub on the leafs will be eliminated. The truck will also have a very mild 2" levelling lift up front with and extra 1.5" increase in the back.

I was looking at the stock wheels on it now (265/75/16) and noticed they are awefully close to the back of the front fender when the wheel is turned. Is this going to be my problem area? How are the fenders "trimmed" to avoid this?

Thanx for your help...

 

they should not rub at all they fix 35s stock if they are on skiny wheels with a leaveing kit your gona be fine maybe on the iner finder well.
