I recently took my truck in for tire cupping. They recommended new shocks and struts. I agreed to replace but now my tires rub fenders. I had a 2” rough country lift and thy replaced with oem shock/struts. My tires are 275/65/20. What are my options.

Yep, this is a problem, the OEM shocks are too short limiting the travel downward so the tires will rub, do you notice the truck is lower then it was? Also, are the new tires a larger size than the old ones?
