i had the same prob on my f150. does yours have the fender moldings? mine does. i took them off, cut right around the wheel opening in the fender. then stuch the molding back on. it makes the edge of the fender pretty thin. no i got like a half in clearance when laid out. the other truck i did i narrowed the front because im running bigger wheels on it.

drop spindles shouldn't stick them out farther. does it clear the rear wheels? find someone who has the same wheels in 22's and trade them your front ones. one 22's in the front and 23's in the back. if it doesn't clear the rear wheels shoot me an email and ill explain how to get them to. it cost me 65 dollars and now i got tons of rear wheel clearence

We laid the viper blue F150 out on 24's and has planty of room to turn and drive. The upper a-arms were raised and the ball joints were swapped for some beefy GM ball joints of course re-drilling the spindles to acept them and she rides like a caddy (since its a ford would u say rides like a lincoln!)

i put my old 20's on there any they are barely clearing. like the wheel touches the inside of the fender. when all the way down. I've figured out when turning you just have to raise it up more to get the wheels out of the fender. also my 23 when layed almost all the way down will clear but when you start to raise it hits the fender. do i need more camber? how do i get that.

post a pic sounds like your offset is wrong
