Hi Everyone,
I recently had the ReadyLift 1.5” leveling kit installed on my 2019 Tahoe RST with ARC. I replaced the rims and tires with Fuel Rebel 20x9 0 offset rims and P285/ 55R20 Toyo tires. When the tires and turned all the way left or right they do rub on the inner fender well. The installer said they could cut the liner to prevent the rubbing. Is this a good option in anyone’s opinion or would getting spacers and pushing the wheel out a bit to stop the rubbing? Thanks for any advice!

I can’t speak to your setup but mine rubbed when I lowered it and put on 305’s and a -28 offset. I used a heat gun to massage most areas but there were a couple of spots where I used zip ties to pull it in. I made a pair of small holes, just big enough for a zip tie and cinched them back. They’ve been there for 14 years.

Spacers would most likely make them rub worse. Turn the tire while parked to the point where they rub, then picture the tire being further out yet…most likely would be worse.

I would start with the pulling back the liner with zip ties and go from there.
