Hi Guys, new to forum but long time lurker. Ordered Rotiform Six OR bronze 17x9 with 01mm offset and planning to go with BF KO2 265/70/17. Will this cause any rubbing without a lift kit?

Thanks in advance

I would say yes to this. Without a lift you can fit that size with no problems but woth the wheel sticking out more it will have a high chance of rubbing the fender especially with no lift or leveling kit of sorts. My opinion is of yoy are going to change the wheels dont go too far on the offset so you have less chance of rubbing. Others may disagree with me on that but it is the truth. Now if you really want those wheels installed I would suggest getring either a lift or leveling kit installed first so you dont have near as many problems.

Thanks for the info.. Will a 2.5 leveling kit eliminate the potential rubbing?

I would assume that it is possible. Others on here would have to confirm that since I myself have the factory wheels and no spacers. Just the Old Mam EMU lift with 265/70-17 tires.

No issues with stock wheels?

Correct. I have no issues with stock wheels. I have the sport wheels and it is just fine. Even without the lift or level they will fit on factory wheels but if you change the wheels there is a chance you would need to add the lift or leveling kit.

I have a feeling you are going to need to either cut or remove the front and possibly rear intrusion bar with that low of offset. Should be fine just driving, but when you turn the wheels to full lock you might have an issue.

With that size tire you might be ok but I'm thinking you'll need to remove the rear crash and blocks behind the wheel liner, then pin back the wheel liner with the bolts you removed from the plastic block.

Same wheels specs, 285/70 on mine. Front and rear crash bars removed and plastic blocks removed.
