Maybe it is just a OME from toytec but I have billit spacer jsut above the top of the strut below the mounting point.

I think that might be a toytec addition. The OME trim spacers are located on the bottom of where the spring sits on the strut. They are also extra, like 7 bucks or something.

i have the 16 inch off road rims so i dont no the off set so that could be a problem

I had always wondered why mine did not come with this spacer pack for the drivers side to level it side to side. I just assumed that because mine did not lean to the drivers side that I would not pursue it.

Nissan I hope that you get this all figured out on the tires. Make sure that you let us know what size and type you end up with. I just called my buddy that owns the tire shop and he said thatthose tires are very large in comparison to others in the same size. He thinks that they might be measureing them from the lowest thread depth and not at the total tire. He thinks that they are a good inch plus larger in diameter at that size.

You installed the spring cups upside down i bet. As far as tire rubbing i have ome med and run 305/65/17 4.5 backspace 0.

Rake minimal.........

Gotta Love a Happy Ending. I'm hoping mine is a happy ending as well. Lift install this week & waiting for tires in the mail. Better be the right size & type,(hate ordering online)
Just happy to read that you got your problem taken care of. BTW--why can't you fit the 285's?? Because of the different rim & offset?? I will be running stock rims & BFG A/T 285's. Toytec said 295's was max.

im not really sure i think that the 285 firestones dont fit but someone just told me on another thread that km2 285s fit with the 3 inch ome with no rub so im going to have to test fit one. i didnt actually put the tire on it was just like i turned the wheel on the stock one looked at the clearance and i compared to the bigger tire and it looked like it would rub.

I am running BFG KM2s 285/70/17 on stock steelies with no rub
OME Med front and back, 1/2" aluminum spacer on top of strut, it is a Toy Tech product. No body chop
