Wow those look great! 305/60's or 305/55's? That might be the tire I go with. Do you have any pictures of the whole truck?

My tires rub on the upper control arms at full lock. Can anything be done to resolve this?

They look great! As for the rubbing, I'd live with it. You could add a wheel spacer to push the tire/wheel outward but you may end up with vibration issues. The only other option is to get a wider wheel or one with slightly less backspacing.

Do you think these Incubus wheels would stop rubbing? I drove 250 miles after tires and I rub them several times. Driving in Houston is tough. I need to fix this.

Hey guys thanks for all the nice comments. Will aftermarket wheel keep the tires from rubbing at full lock? I would like to go with a wheel with these specs. Let me know what you think.

Yep, I think that would eliminate the rubbing on the control arms.
