    Be a bit more specific like where. But probably remove mud flaps, do a body mount chop, bumper spacer, trim and/or mold plastic with a knife and/or heat gun.....or buy smaller tires. lol

    If it's the plastics behind the bumper, you can either get the shim kit from @Coachbuilder1 or redrill the bolt holes for the plastic and push that forward about .5 to .75 inch.

    you must have some weird offset wheels if your tires are rubbing with 35'' tires on a 6'' lift. I have maybe 2.5" lift and my 35's don't even come close to rubbing. I just had to remove the mud flaps and move the front fender liner forward like discussed above.

    Yea...I have to finish up trimming to fit mine, but I have a lil bigger than 35s, almost 13 wide, and -19 offset. Offset is what did me in the most
