7" lift.... 38 15.5's??
So i have a 4" procomp lift, with the 2.8" mini packs, blocked in the rear to match.. i'm running 325-80/16 falken wild peaks right now and the tires look tiny. i picked up some 20x12 rockstar rims brand new.... i'm trying to figure out what tires to get, but i'm trying to figure out if 38-15.50/20's will clear. i'm assuming the rim has a good offset on it, but is there any good way to try and estimate this out?? i know i'll need fender flares, but i didn't want to do cutouts. i'll try and get better pictures soon. i don't mind cutting the bumper, i'm sure i'll have to.. any thoughts??
i know this is a contradicting.. but i want it bigger i just don't want it to stand out too ridiculously (po po's) |

on my 03 I ran a 6' with 38's and 20x12 rockstars with the 4.53 backspace, and had to add a 2' shackle hanger kit and space the bumper out a little so it wouldn't rub

how bad was the rub before? i'm assuming the rear's fine its just turning?

What year is your truck? Leaf spring SD will rub with 15.5" tires. I suggest 37s but you can always buy wheel spacers to make clearance if you do have leafs in the front.
38s will rub when you offroad I have had my 37s rubbing with a 8" kit before. |

I dont offroad at all so no worries there.. the rims should have a good offset so i'm hoping it pushes them out, how bad would they rub on the springs? just at full turn?

20x12 Rockstars have a -44 offset..

I can't remember what rims and backspacing, but my buddy had a 2003 f350 6.0 7" icon kit and had 38x15.5 tires and they rubbed at full lock.
Just something to think about man. When I bought my truck It has a poor lift it on it and I couldn't stand my truck making that ugly rubbing noise. Each to his own tho! |

I have 8 inch lift with 38s with 2 inch spacers and still rub the inner wheel wells if I have the wheel cut and hit a bump.

The spacers will increase the risk of rubbing the fender liners. To prevent (or at least reduce the chance) rubbing the springs, a higher arch spring is needed.
