Got rid of my OTT lift and got the Franky 1 (sitting way higher than before). Went to the tire shop to test 265 75 16 and 235 85 16 and I've got rubbing on normal turns. I'm going to push in the liners with a heat gun but i was wondering if I should take off my spacers (running stock rim) and that would decrease some of the rubbing.

With 265/75's and spacers you will get some rubbing. It will rub even with the pinch weld done. It rub on the outside edge of the tire.

At the shop on level ground I was hitting the fog light door when turning the wheel. I don't mind the rubbing hsd it on my old setup but that was only when backing down the driveway. I remember seeing something about some type of adjustment to move the tires back or forward. Did a search but couldn't find it.

No way to move the tire back or forward. Not sure where you got that at. :roll:

I have the same set up. No rubbing under normal circumstances. When I still had the OEM bumper, I mounted the tire, turned the wheel and cut until the tires didn't rub. The ARB has no issues. Once I cut everything down, I only had rubbing at full steering turn and that's on the sway bar.
