    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my SUV" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your leather interior, please post in the Interior section - and so on...

Telluride sx lift and larger tires

I've had the 265/65/18's on a 32 offset wheel for almost a full year and they rub a bit. Ive had the Truxxx lift on for a few weeks now and they still rub a bit. They only rub slightly and only 1 or so spots while almost at full lock. If you're worried about the rubbing I'd go with the 60's but i think 65's look so good on it.

Do you mind posting any pics with the lift installed? I'd like to see it with the tires you have. I see your Telluride in your profile pic - looks sweet - looks like that is without the lift. Please correct me if I'm wrong or if you already posted pics in another thread. Thanks for sharing good info.
 
What's the largest size tire that would fit on the stock 20" SX wheels with the Truxxx lift and not rub?
 
I have Falken Wildpeak AT3W's. They rub. Its not a problem. If its not raining tomorrow I'll try and take some pictures all around.

Has the handling been compromised on-road? A higher center of gravity with stock springs makes me think it'll make it more wobbly.

It was on the drive home until I took it in for an alignment. Then it was just fine. No I have to find the biggest tires for 18in wheels that won't rub.
 
Love your setup, could you tell me what specific wheels and tires you have? I have had trouble finding a good fit for the lift kit setup.

Black Rhino Tanay 18x8 +32 offset
Falken Wildpeak AT3W 265/65R18

I believe the wheels are a discontinued style by Black Rhino. I know they are still available on some sites though. I got them last year on custom offsets for under $500. Couldn't pass it up.

The tires rub lift or no lift, just before full lock, more so in reverse. It's not to bad.
