Newbie wheel question

[markkiemark]

My H2 came with 20" wheels and 325/60/20 tires and I get a slight rub at full lock. Any way to compensate for this? I don't have the specs on the wheels so I hope this info helps. Thanks!!!

If it truly is only a 'slight rub' I would assume that cranking your torsion bars (and/or installing GM green keys) would fix it on the cheap. It'll lift the front a bit and make the truck set more level from front to back. In my experience, this also effected the smoothness of the truck's ride, especially when going over bumps...made it more harsh.

IMO, the best way would be to get a Cognito Upper Control Arm (UCA) kit. It will lift the front, level the truck, reduce that stress on your steering components, and maintain the factory feel to the ride...but this is obviously more expensive than the above.

Or you could buy a more reasonable size wheel and tire combination :) 18x9 Rockstars - LT325/65R-18 Goodyear Wrangler DuraTrac

Thanks for the responses. Well the tires are pretty much new even though the wheels are pitted so buying a whole new set up might be too costly. I might have to look into the different options.

You sure it's your tires? 325/60 is only 35.2 inches high and 12.9 inches wide.

The 20" rim is not your problem. You can get several size tires to fit that rim if it is your tires.
