6" Rough Country/ 35" Mickey Thompson rubbing advice

Hey guys! Just finished the lift a couple weeks back and got the 35x12.5x17 Mickey Thompson's. It's rubbing pretty bad in the front. I can drive it fine, but parking and tight turns are require geometry! Haha. Anyways, I was wondering what the best way to raise the front maybe another 1-2 inches. This should give me almost exactly the space I need. I don't want a body lift, and I don't want to cut unless I need to. Could i put 5100's on the front? Also i heard of people putting a smaller leveling spacer along with a suspension lift... Possible?? Any advice??
I also have the RC UCA's if that makes any difference. Thanks guys!

What kind of rims do you have? I have 33" x 12.50" Mickey Thompsons on stock offroad 17" rims, and I have no rubbing at all on my STOCK HEIGHT Titan. In fact, I have lots of clearance, and I'm pretty sure with a leveling spacer that I could fit 35's. If you have stock rims, you shouldn't have any rubbing at all with the lift kit you have. If you have aftermarket rims with a negative offset, then you can just do the pinch weld mod, take off the mud flaps and you will be good. But there is no way you would need to have more lift to fit 35" x 12.50" tires. Lots of guys have 35x12.50's on their trucks with the same lift you have, you just might have to trim a bit if your rims have a negative offset.

*edit*

It's actually rubbing the solid metal corner area in the back of the wheel well.

sounds like you need the pinch weld mod. here's the link:

I am more impressed with the fact that you were able to use a 17" rim. I was told I couldn't

Yeah, the manufacturer recommends minimum 8" wide rim, whereas the stock offroads are 7.5" wide. But I have no problems with mine. You just have to rotate more often to avoid uneven tire wear.
