You rub up front? If so, get a measurement from fender to the middle of your hub and verify it's a 5" drop. I haven't heard of anyone having issues with a 245/50/20, but most run a 275/40 or 245/45

28.7"-245/45
29.6"-yours
28.7"-275/40

Yea i got the 5-7 Mcgauhys drop kit I thought that was as low as these trucks could go static.

You can go lower, but you need to cut springs and sacrifice the ride pretty much.

Yea it already rides like crap I think I'll try different tires then if that doesn't work I'm going to start cutting stuff or make inner fenders I just can't lift it it looks too good.
