 | Tires/Rims Well, I have came across a problem. My tires that I traded with my cousin hits the steering linkage under the truck if I turn sharp. They are 36" tires and a 16" 90's Ford F150 stock rims. Here's some pictures:    Will this cause a problem? I think so, like if I put the 4x4 in and it hits the steering linkage under my truck. What size rims and tires should I get? |

| the rims are the culprit here, you need some rms with less backspacing to get the tires out away from the steering components. you could also use wheel spacers, but id go with new rims. |

| I agree new rims with different backspacing may solve your problems. You may also look into wheel spacers. Both will put more strain on axle bearings and seals. GOOD LUCK! 97BUSSDRIVER |
