3.5" RE lift is going on - my installer has a couple questions

shouldn't it not rub w/ correct bumpstopping and trimming though? also isn'y backspacing a factor?

Limiting vertical travel by extending the bumpstop might help with some of the problem but not all. It does not rub when evenly compressing both sides, but when one side dives more than the other. I'm not going to lower the bumpstops because I want the travel.

Backspacing is definitely a factor, but I have not looked into it too far. Not sure if the extra turning capability is worth the extra $$$. But then again, I have not priced rims either. Anybody know a good source?

By my highly calibrated eyeball, backspacing would probably fix the rub at full lock on the sway bar, but probably would not fix the LCA rub. I'm not sure it would help the fender rub, but might.
