    Hi all! So I recently installed one size up tires, went with Dura tracs 275 70 R18. Also have a 2.5” leveling kit on front. Tires sound like rubbing when wheel is fully turned one way or the other. Don’t see any marks on flaps or wheel well. Wheels are also stock. Any ideas would be appreciated!

    Take off the small flap in front of the front wheels and see if it helps.

    Skid plate contact. Just need to bend them a bit with a pair of pliers.

    Why not have a friend or relative crank the wheel over, whilst you are under the front of the vehicle and watch where the tire hits?

    Preacher35 ya I didn’t have anyone around yesterday and figured someone would know on here right away where it was hitting. Thanks everyone for the advice, bent them both and also removed small front mud flaps, no more rubbing
