Need Help Please!!!

Hi Folks,
Dropped by 2013 Tahoe using Tony's kit 2/3 Belltech with 2" Drop Spindles and adjustable struts, SP shocks, cornering kit, etc.
I dropped the front 2" and back 3" however the front is too low and rubbing on inside of fender.
I didn't measure prior to drop however after drop the front is 32 3/4 and rear is 34 3/8 so approximately a 2" difference between front and back. The front strut currently has the 10mm spacers in and from what I read, I will need to add (2) 8mm spacers to raise one inch and (4) spacers to raise 2 inches.
My questions is twofold:
- If I add (4) spacers to raise 2 inches, this should "level" the vehicle which is what I am looking for as I run 24" KMC Slides in summer.
- Can I still use the 2" drop spindles when raising it another 2" or should these be removed and OEM spindles reinstalled?

Please help!

If your lowered it will rub, I am lowered 2-3 the same way and have been as low as 5-6 you have to trim the fender liners in places another option is try using a heat gun you can melt the plastic enough that you can form some parts to be more out of the way, after all my trimming it still rubs in places at full lock.

Yes thanks Tony. Would it be better to use OEM spindles and drop struts or use the drop spindle and raise the adjustable strut. Any advantage versus disadvantage using either option?

No keep spindles and just lift drop struts. Wil get more travel in shock
