Looking for some thoughts here and apologize if I missed commentary on the same issue in prior posts.

I have a stock 2018 LC, changed the tires to 285/65R18 BFG KO2 on the stock rims. I am getting what I would call bottoming out on the rear tires when making sharp turns or passing through a dip in the road. At this time I am not looking to do a lift and thought I would be ok based on some of the posts I had read some time back, but definitely some interference going on here that I would like to cure.

Let me know if anyone has had the same experience and if you were able to remedy.

Are you saying that your 285/65R18s are making contact on the rear tires with something? Or are you saying that the rear of your front tires is hitting something? I've never really heard of anyone having trouble on the rear axle with a 33" tire.

That's not even a 33", it's a 32.6" so it is odd. I run 275's which are 33.2" tall and I don't have that issue so I am at a loss.

The rear tires; it sounds as though they are bumping up to the body during turns and big bumps. No extra weight on the vehicle. I am at a bit of a loss on this one as well, so thought I would see if anyone had noticed the same.

There are quite a few 35s run on this forum, and I have 34” tires. Never had anything in rear interfere. Are you sure it’s what you think it is? Can you see the witness marks from where the tire is touching?

How many miles do you have on the shocks? And are they factory?

I seem to hear that worn shocks on the cruiser lead to the symptom that your describing which is that the rear suspension bottoms out easily. The LX guys don't really experience bottoming out in the same say, so you maybe really into the compression travel more than most? Witness marks inside the wheel well would help us diagnose clearance issues.

Will see if I can grab some meaningful pics. 40k miles and original factory shocks.

Still seem to have a long life ahead. Let us know what you find.
 
Just added new Icon Vector 5 17x8.5 +25 w/ BFG KO2 285/70/17 E with no lift. Really happy with how they turned out. Very slight rub at full lock on the mud flap. Not too worried about it.

Any pics from the front or back?
I am looking at wheels/tires now and just curious what that ET25 offset looks like!

Check out my stance thread.
 
motorsport tech is where you get them from. the wait is about 4-6 weeks. Mine is coming in a few days right at 5 weeks. This is my second set, last vehicle had them on there for 3 years, no issues.

For those who have recently gotten Bora 1" spacers, where did you order them from?

Any experience with rogue off-road? Motorsport tech?


Motorsport Tech makes an excellent product and provides great customer service. I have 1” spacers for the 200 and have another set of fully customer spacers for another vehicle. I’m very satisfied and happy to recommend them.
 
Anyone running a 1” spacer vs a 1.25” spacer with 275/70/18? What is the difference or pros/cons… I briefly tried a 1.5” and it immediately rubbed at full lock.

I'm running a 1" spacer with 275/70/18.

Remove the front rear mud flap plastic piece. Needs some very minor massaging on the fender liner.

I made a whole thread about it.

275 70 18 Falken wildpeak at3 on factory double 5 wheels, OEM coil spacer.

1" Bora spacers ordered and coming soon - will let you know.

Have a small rub reversing at full lock currently. Plan to remove mud guards

I'm leaning towards a 1" spacer right now, and running the KO2 in a 275/70 at the moment with zero rub. It's amazing how much better 1" can make a wheel/tire look on a 200 series. I am thinking that once I put a proper lift on this truck I may want to bump up a tire size... time will tell!

275’s work without the wheel spacers or the OEM coil spacer but they will rub slightly in reverse so you will have to massage the fender liners some and lose the front mud flaps. I put the wheel spacers on simply for stance and looks and the same for the OEM coil spacers, I simply wanted to eliminate the rake.
