Truxxx & 275/65r18

When the wheel is at full lock the tread rubs on a little piece of the inner plastic that pokes out and it sounds like I'm spinning the wheel on wheel of fortune.

I have spacers, check my signature.
 






Hello everyone,

I'm a new member and this will be my first post. I've had my explorer for a few years and finally decided to make it look more aggressive. It's a 2006 xls 4x4. Here are a few pictures of what it looked like before and after installing a truxxx leveling kit and 275/65R18 cooper discoverers on rhino sidewinders (-12 offset). I also recently replaced all 4 strut assemblies (Monroe) and all my ball joints. I had to trim some plastic because of minor rubbing at full turn. The old wheels are 235/65R17 on Motegi wheels. Sorry if the sizing of these pics is off.

Do you remember how wide these wheels were? I'm hoping to get that same amount of stance on my 07 limited, but i know -12et on an 18x8 is different than -12et on 18x9 and so on.
