I was truly hoping that instead of the debating, someone, somewhere, would have some advice on properly uploading pictures.

I'm well aware that my offset plays a part in why I rub! But I am also 100% certain that even with stock wheels I would rub with 31s. Like Diata said stock wheels will rub on the frame rather than the fender.

My 31s touch the bumper at some turns with cranked t-bars and keys (still new to get upper control arms), they hit with stock wheels... They hit with 2wd wheels. Hoping once I get arms they will clear a little better, level me out better, and have some better room when twisting around
