runnin 285/40/22 in back on a 6" and it rubs ever so slighty on large bumps, but not for just daily driving. If you run a 6" drop in back, just put the airlift bags in there for support. It'll firm up the rear and raise it ever so slightly so that you'll get no rubbing. Sam setup I have (also for sale).

265/40 in front with no issues whatsoever. I still have room to go bigger up front if i wanted.

I was just about to recommend those sizes. It works apparently
