I have put 37" X-Terrains on my stock rims and I love the look. There is however a slight amount of rubbing when I have to make a tight turn. Is there a certain type/size wheel that will solve this problem? I do not know much about this subject so I am trying to learn as I go.
Thanks,
Jeff

So far so good. The muffler took about 30 to 45 minutes to install by a local muffler shop. the intake took about 10-15 min. to install and the proflash was pretty simple to do. I'm not sure if I truly got a 70 hp increase, but you can feel a definite increase in power. I don't know about mpg changes yet, but I am leaving on about a 7,000 mile round trip from FL to IN to Il to Co to look for some property, then back along the same route. I be back around 28 Oct and will let you know what #'s I see.

Do you have any pics of your rig with the 37" Pro Comps?
I'm thinking about getting some 37" Pro Comp MT's myself.

Will someone please answer my original question? I don't know my local wheel people very well and don't want to order the wrong size and be stuck with them.
Thanks,
Jeff

I've got a local tire shop and he will mount up stuff to try out.
Where is the rubbing?
On sway bar?
A rim w/ more offset will set the tire out away from vehicle which will help the sway bar rubbing.
If it is hitting the edge of tire on body (inner or outer) the only thing that will help is smaller OD tires.
