Nope... no problems at all with the 35's. I wonder if it's because of the redesign of the air dam on the '03 models. I'm sure if I do some good off-roading they might rub, but not under normal driving conditions.

Actually, I have 33s and they rub. I had to trim away the lower air dam and also the plastic inner fenders (about 4" off those) to minimize rubbing. I still get rubbing in reverse at full lock. Probably has more to do with the width of my 33s, not the height. These are 325 wide Nitto Terra Grapplers.

33s look great, especially with an 18" wheel. You wouldn't believe the attention that a lifted truck with bigger wheels gets.
