Thanks guys!:Handshake:
Right now the suspension is still settling since the truck was on stands for like four days.
The tire is a 305/30/26 and still rubs a shit load.
Even with a +35 offset, the washer fluid tank rubs on the tire on the drivers side when turning right.
I had to cut off pretty much all of the front wheel liner front/back portions, then I had to trim off some metal from behind the wheel liners. The tires rub on the handbrake line and are a hair off rubbing on the metal above the tire and in the inner part of the fender.
Turns also have to be taken at like 2MPH, Stabilitrack turns on at just about every turn (due to rubbing).:emotions122:
Lastly, I highly do not suggest a 3/5 drop for a DD because it will kill you with all the rubbing and work need to clear them. Ride is not great at all.:Plugged:
I'm ony keeping it like this because I don't drive it much (only put on 18000 miles in 3 years).
Just save some life and get a 2/3 if you have 26s, you will have a good amount of clearance issues with that too.

Looks good bro. The front doesn't look like it's 3". Looks like you have the cali look. I'm with you on the rubbing and traction control. I'm going to bag mine.

Yeah I do have some Cali Lean, about .5" of it but the truck is on a slight hill because the lean is close to unnoticeable.
The front is more like 2.5" but it won't be for long as it settles in.
I wish I could try some smaller tires, but anything smaller than what I have with 26s has a load rating to low for these SUVs and slight bumps will bend the wheels pretty easy.
