As it sit now, there is a small bit or rubbing on the front skirt. Not enough to concern me though. Also at full lock it'll rub the sway bar, but I don't turn full lock very often, so no worry there either.

The tow hooks were painted red by someone, but not me.

Remember that there are some variances in tire sizes between brands and also between an AT type tread and a more aggressive one.

i am running 255 70 16 general AT2 and there is still rubbing.
i have the ironman lift, and clevis spaced out, and an extra rear spacer. the back is fine, but front rubbed.
pounded the pinch weld, still a bit of rubbing.
moved the inner fender liner as far forward as possible, still some rubbing.
added spidertrax spacers, still some rubbing.
its not much rubbing, just enough to be annoying though...

plan is to add a top plate, another rear iso, and JBA arms one day...

Thanks for the feedback. I decided to go with 245/75s because of that.

After mounting the 245/75s seems like I could have gone with the 265/70s without an issue - still plenty of space around the tires in the well, both forward and rear.. I guess the top plates/rear isos make a change. Bummer as I could've gained 2"+ inch of ground contact and a more aggressive stance.
