what is the space between tire and fender in the front and the back?
4” in the front and 3” in the back difference with the back being lower. It actually is about 4” in difference because I have about large subwoofer setup.

I think I might want to raise my car by 1” in the front and back. Not sure if I totally like it this low.

They rub at full lock on the mud flap

My RST Suburban also rubs when in full turn left or right. I just switched to michelins tires and dont recall hearing it (just got them yesterday) but with the stock Bridgestone's I heard it. It was very slight touch but enough to be heard. I couldnt figure out a way to avoid it.

After some more miles the factory bridgestine's are rubbing on the sway bar both sides.

I will have to check that. I just stuck my hand around the tire when it was on the ground and just felt the fender wall plastic. I will have to raise vehicle and get a better look at what all its touching.

I also have a odd sound from my rear after spring change. I need to raise the vehicle uninstall the kit and reinstall and double check everything but it sounds like the noise sounds like the springs squeaking when hitting bumps, annoying and makes me feel like I have a cheap vehicle with the sounds. Same as the front rubbing when people hear it makes me feel like they are thinking there is something wrong or cheap product or install

NorCal 2-4 drop. 24” Status Juggernauts. 285/45 falkens. Rides like a dream. Although, the rear is kind of soft being is I got the mag/auto ride rear kit, which has different spring rates as apposed to the non-mag spring kit. Will get some helper bags to stiffen it up a little

Here is some findings from my front rubbing. With new tires I did full lock to lock and only found rubbing inner fender but at some point I see some rubbing on sway bar

Nocal, is this normal for vehicles with stock 22" wheels?

Just pull the liner back a bit with a zipstrip. The rub on the sway bar shouldnt cause much of an issue. Rarely will hit it, and probably dosnt make a sound.

the part of the fender liner is pressed right against the interior cabin liner so maybe banging the liner might be minimal but enough then there is really not a place to zip tie but....I will have to experiment.
