Wondering if there are any rubbing issues at full compression or full lock on the gen 3's with stock tire size and 0 offset?

I have a very slight rub with Method 17" 0 offset. 1" Eibach Springs. Full lock only on drivers side, and it barely touches the lower, rear, inner part of the body.
I do have 37x12.5x 17" Toyo RT Trail tires, which are one of the larger 37's out there.

Stock as in stock 35". I'm more concerned with rubbing under full compression especially since I am stock ride height in the front for now.

Im running +1 offset on a 9inch wheel, 325/60/20 which is 1 inch taller than stock and definitely wider. I get light rubbing on inner wheel well. Its mostly on the bolt holding in the liner. Easy fix. I dont think you will rub at all

It has been demonstrated in a video (don’t have the link) that 0 offset will tear up your rear fenders when under full articulation on one side. 35s and 37s wouldn’t make a difference.

This is exactly what I was looking for and also hoping wasn't the case!

I just made the switch to Method 701's 17 x 8.5 w 0 offset- I left the stock 35 tires no rubbing so far and while I haven't sent it yet I did put 1500lbs in the bed with no rubbing.

Glad I could help, it's surprising how little these kinds of things are discussed. You have a million page thread on how 37s on a stock 35 truck don't rub and it's simply not true unless you're just driving and doing things in your truck that any other truck could do. I'm considering doing some kind of fender mod myself to get the 1 inch of travel back in my 37pp.
