Nope, no rub. I had 255/60's and replaced the rears w/275's first & then put 275's on the front. I don't haul much in it but I'm 300++ & often a 200lb. passenger. Speed humps in my neighborhood & I take 'em slow but it does feel like it's got some suspension travel. I grease the front regularly but something "SQUAWKS" when I go over the humps.
