Did you have to cut the lugs to fit the 1.5 wheel spacers ? Looks awesome!

They might actually be 1.75", I forget which ones I got lol.

No rubbing, I did zip tie the rear part of the front fender liners back for a little more clearance.

Wheels spacers look great! Did you have to trim the lugs for the 1.5 wheel spacers or the wheels fit fine? Thanks
Yes, you have to nip the very end of the studs off with 1.5" spacers. It doesn't effect the threads, as it's not much material removed. I believe I made a post either in my build thread or started a new one. I'll do some digging. I know some of the 20s have depressions between the lug holes that are deep enough you don't need to trim.

Looks good! Have you got an alignment yet? If not it will settle a little bit...
Not yet. Going to drive it a little tomorrow and going to get alignment Wednesday. I'm hoping it settles so I don't have to mess with the rear. Rides better than stock to me. Love it so far. Had about 2.5 inches of rake before bilsteins.

Yup same here, I was shocked to find out how well the truck rode on 5100s at 2.8. Mine was quite a bit squirlly above 45mph before I got the alignment so just be ready for that...

View attachment 179466 Front bilsteins at 2.8, stock rear.
Ultra 20x9 +1 offset with 285/65/20 Falken wildepeaks. No rubbing but for some reason the lower front corner of my inner fender wells keep popping out at highway speeds and rub on the tires.

My inner fender wells did the same thing at highway speeds! I tore them up from them hitting and rubbing so I bought new ones and drilled them in, no issues since
