    I have my stock bars turned up nearly all the way and the 265's im currently running still rub when the wheels are fully turned.

    +1, get some different wheels with stock offset instead of a body lift for sure...

    hmm thats weird my truck with stock suspension clears 33" and does not rub at all when the wheel is turned all the way. and my dads truck is the same clears no problems. something is wrong if you rub with factory size tires.

    Guess we need pics, maybe your torsion bars are worn out? Does that happen? Ive seen leaf springs loose their arch before. Maybe someone installed lowering keys in the past? I dont know something isnt adding up.

    maybe he has lowering torsion keys or bars. shoot ive seen stock 2wd silvys with 265 tires no rubbing. i still recommend the leveling kit posted.

    We have owned this truck since new, so no lowering junk or anything. It does have 125,000 on it though. Do you think the leveling kit would work on a 2500 non HD? It states that it is for a 1500.
