Dude - had the same problem and it drove me nuts... Installed a 6" fabtec lift and solved the problem... Suggest you look into it - you wont be sorry.

You're rubbing on the plastic fender well liner, yes?
I don't know if you'll get enough lift out of the torsion bars. You might, you might not.
If you don't do the torsion bars and if you don't lift and if you must keep the tires and if you can't live with the noise, get a sharp knife and cut the plastic where you see rub marks.
If you don't, eventually your tires will wear holes in the plastic and then you'll have edges of plastic ratcheting on your tire lugs.
Ever clothespin a playing card to your bike when you were a kid? It's kinda like that only much louder and a much deeper tone. People will jump when you turn near them in a parking lot.

u might think im stupid, and maybe iam lol, but im not sure the backspacing , my mechanic cranked the torsaion bars today but he said only a little bit cuz it would make the truck too stiff, anyway they still rub and iam almost embrassed when i pull into a store or gas station , he said if they still rub he would do some trimming and that would solve the issue , i sure hope so cuz the truck looks awesome i just gotta solve this issue than ill be happy

Still waiting! 
I +5'ed my torsion bars this weekend and I didn't notice any difference in the ride. The alignment change made for a fun ride to the dealer this AM in the snow though! All over the place...  
Truck sits much more level now. I like it!  |
