Well finally came time to get the old tires that came with my rims replaced (295/45/20).

Replaced them with 275/55/20. Now the front tires rub the plastic inner fender liner when i go through a dip.

I need new shocks on all four corners, any recomendations? I have the McGaughy's 2/4 pro drop kit installed.

you have a 2/4 drop and you are rubbing?? i have a 2/4 with 255/50s and its just fine for me, i even ran 275/55s for a while with no problems. Your truck looks alot lower in your pic. you shure its not the bump stops you are hitting, i think the 2/4s could use a notch.

not the bump stops, cause i looked up in the fender well, you can see where the tires are hitting the plastic liner.

may just be worn out shocks too....

My tires rub on the top too when I hit a big dip. I've got new belltech shocks and stock 20's.

here is a good tire size calculator that gives you a visual of how the two tires are different. Ive usd it hundreds of times picking just the right size I needed.
