To make a long story short...I bought some new wheels, went to have them mounted and due to the width and offset of the wheel they rubbed on my front bumper considerably.
If I just had the gray unpainted bumper I would have cut it no problem. However I have the Harley bumper and I'm not willing to hack on it at this point.
The way I see it now I have a few choices: Buying a larger lift kit, getting a shackle and hanger kit, wheel spacers, shimming the bumper or a combination of the above. The full lift kit is out at this point because of price.
I currently have a 5.5" lift which I believe has sagged considerably. The wheels are 20x10 KMC Rockstars (with a -24mm offset)on 35" toyo m/t's. The old wheels where only 8.5" wide and never touched the bumper.
Bottom line is I need to figure out how to get these awesome looking wheels on my truck for as little money as possible.
P.S. this will be a temporary fix, as I will eventually get a full 8" lift kit when the funds are right.
