LOL! Congrats! It appears they are rubbing on the front mud guards and there is about a 1/2 inch of space between the fender carpet and the wheel at full turn. What I did figure out is that if that turning while in SPORT rub only sometimes causes the rubbing. But, turning while in NORMAL drive mode producing rubbing every time. I'm guessing it's got something to do with the suspension tightening just a slight bit in sport mode. Still testing. I'm likely going to but out the Dremel and do a little "adjusting" to the mud guards because I actually like the squared off look of them. Maybe just a little "nip/tuck".

God that truck looks so good on Ko3s.

I have run BFG Kos since my xterra in 2006. Been through many sets. I am a BFG loyalist. I have ko3s on my 5th gen in Load range C after recently replacing my ko2s load range E that had 70k miles on them. After going Load Range C, I will never go back on a truck this light. Shit was like riding on wagon wheels compared to C.

I refuse to put a load range E on this truck since it's a daily and mostly driven by my wife. I don't get why these trucks have 18" wheels, I assume its brake size, but unless I go to 17" wheels there are no options. I really wish BFG would make some sizes in the lower load ranges.

Thank you for coming to my TrED talk.

Trd sport premium- I have the stock wheel size which is 20 inch. I would like to upgrade the tire size from the one I have now (265/55 r 20) I’m wondering what tire size can I upgrade to without lifting and avoid rubbing. Can I go with 275/55 R20 or 275/60 R20? Thank you

Picked her up on Friday and immediately took her for a wheel and tire swap. Managed to snap some photos before the rain started.

At full turn, I have some a small bit of rubbing. Might need the 1.5 level/lift kit to solve this. Still need to remove the chin. More mods coming.. More photos and video coming too. Loving this truck!

Here's a walk around.. This give you an idea of how badass the hood scoop looks (even though it's not functional) I guess I really didn't need to blur my plate if I was going to show this.

Don't want to be hating on everyones air dams, but this is the first build I've seen where the air dam looks goood. Congrats

Thanks Evan... So, I took the air dam off yesterday and to be honest, in hindsight, it wasn't as bad as I thought it was. I'm debating reattaching after I see what happens with a leveling kit.
