Just installed a set of 315/70/17 nitto trail grapplers on my 2012 1 ton single wheel mega cab. The 315's add up to about 34.5 inch rubber just short of 35's and they rub the control arms pretty good. My question is will I wreck anything until I can get my leveling kit and air bags in? I couldn't find a place to put the leveling kit in and I need to go to work with the truck for about 2 weeks before I can get back and get the kit in.

 

Just don't turn left or right and you should be fine.

 

Haha ya I'm finding that out right now, will a leveling kit really even stop the rubbing of the control arm anyways?

 

You will have to lift AND buy new wheels to get the rubbing to stop.

 

Leveling wont do anything for rubbing on the control arms, you need wheels with a different backspacing. A little rubbing never hurt anybody, just dont do any major offroading.

 

I'd say different B.S. wheels. Or you could get Thuren control arms (with extra bend) after the leveling kit is installed.

 

Thanks for the info people!

 

Just an update on the 315's, finally got my daystar leveling kit in and to my amazement no rubbing whatsoever on the control arm except the mudflap a little, can now do full turns again! I now wonder if I had got 35's if they would have rubbed just because they are a little bit bigger yet. I think I will stay with the 315's because I really disliked the rubbing.
