I Don't know about rubbing with a 3" body lift, But a 33" tire and the T- Bars
Cranked all the way up still rubs like a ***** with crabs. (33" tires for sale fit 20" rims,only 90 miles)

I've got 33x12.5's on, but I trimmed the front bumper and cranked the T-bars up. I shouldn't have a problem this spring when the 7" lift kit goes on.

Ok you have a few choices here...

3" body without any crank you could clear 33's on 16x8 and most likely 16x10's

i have crank and 4" blocks in back and am clearing 16x10's with 305/70/16's 33x12.50's slight trimming..
If i put a 3" body on i could clear 35's
