On my stock rims with 32"MTs/stock rims and 3"lift the tire contacted the frame at full lock. New rims solved it. My winter set is now a set of 32"ATs/stock rims at 3.75" lift and they clear fine. You are not realy changing geomety with a BL so the stock rims and new tires will rub at full lock. You either need to change lift or backspacing. Matt

I have 32" tires on my stock 16" wheels and they don't rub at all with the 3" spacer lift I have. I'm about to go with 15" rims with 33's, then I'll have to get the correct amount of backspacing to keep them from rubbing. If you don't wheel your truck hard and just want the tires more or less for looks then I'd say the set up you have should work fine.

This may be a little off topic. But I just go new tires and wow what a difference from stock. My new ones are just great both on and off road. The also do very well in the snow, even if I am in 2 wheel drive. They are Bridgestone Dueler AT Revo.

Here's a link.

You setup will work with the 3in lift and 32s on the stock wheels. You will notice when at full turn you tire will rub the frame slightly because of the increased width and height.

But it will not cause any damage, just wear the paint off the frame rail. You can prevent it by just not turning so sharp. Or you can always lengthen your steering stops by a tad bit so you can't turn as sharp, if the rubbing bothers you. It will be so minute that it won't really effect your turning radius at all
