Default 305/65R17 rubs

Have a teraflex leveling kit with rugged ridge rims.

Tires are 305/65R17.

I have stock flares.

If I disconnect, I rub. Only solution is:
a) lift it more
b) increase bumpstops
c) flat fenders/trim the heck out of the stock flares

Are you disconnected in that photo?

I was disconnected when I rubbed REALLY bad.

I did not try it with the sway bar in the locked position. That may keep me from rubbing...disconnected, rubbed big time.
