Default Testing my new wheel/tire combo

Just testing out my new wheel tire combo. I still need to get different lug nuts and a 3" body lift due to clearance issues.

The wheel tire combo if you dont know are...18x10 MB Motoring Blitz wheels and 33x13.50 MT Baja Claw Radials..

The truck already has a CCM 2.5" Leveling kit on the front and a rear block. It did "sag" in the front, or as some say, the Texas lean.

I can turn maybe 1/2 way to the left or right, then the tire hits the back side of the fender well fairly bad. A 3" BL should take care of it. As for the purpose of the truck, sand, what snow we have, and maybe a mud hole every now and again. As we all know they are just so irresistable.

I'd imagine you'd just start rubbing elsewhere after the 3" body. no?
