You are correct. Also went with a 9 inch wide rim as well.
I would bet that staying with a 30.5" tire would be close but probably ok.
Unfortunately didn't have the option of trial fitment of other sizes.
275/55/R20 is a 31.9" tire.

Did you level the front or are you in stock suspension?

Do you think an extra 1/4" would have saved the rub at full lock?

Just had mine done a couple of days ago. Icon with tubular UCA's. Got tired of waiting for Icon wheels so went with Fuel Grey Shok 17x9 +1mm offset. I'll have to do a little more trimming on my crash bars and remove those plastic blocks at the rear of the wheel well.

How do you get this plastic boxes out? I tried and removed the 3 screws but it was still stiff at place:crying:

That's the trick, there are FOUR screws!

Yes, there are two front bolts that you can easily see when pulling back the fender liner, and there are two more hiding behind the fender on the corner at a weird angle.

You DEFINITELY need to get back the place you took the second picture now that your lift and wheels/tires are installed! Beautiful shot! :like: I would be interested to see how the 17x8.5 et25 looks from the front down the side as well. I fell like that's the perfect width/offset combo for our trucks.

I have a similar question. I did a 3” lift and I’m now noticing that I get a lot more warnings to keep my hands on the steering wheel. I wonder if this has to do with the lift kit and the lane departure warning system. I turned it off the warnings but not the lane departure and its stopped most warnings but I still get an occasional one. Any one else have the same thing? Is there an adjustment that needs to be made?
I have a 3" rangerlifts leveling kit on mine. Had alignment done after install. No issues with lane departure at all.
