Hi guys I have just done a 2 inch lift kit on my sierra, but the tires are scrapping. I have 31*10.5 on them, can anyone tell me if i need to body lift it? |

yeah mate, unless you extend the bumpstops the springs will still compress right up to the stock spot, you'll need to do alot of guard bashing or a body lift and a little guard bashing, i've got the same size tyres on with 15*8 with a inch of offset and they scrub on the spring slightly on full lock, i've also got body lift extended bump stops and massaged the seams and cut off the stock mounts for bullbar and its fine with up travel now, only scrubs on full lock |

I have 30mm bumpstop spacers in the front with the 2" lift flattened the seams on the firewall and no scrubbing. I'd only go a body lift for 33's. |

If your tyres don't scrub you should fit bigger ones |
