Default No More Rubbin'
I've had slight rubbing on my swaybar at full turn since I installed my 33" Mickey Thompsons just over a year ago. I finally added SpiderTrack Spacers and I'm rub-free. I also love the wider stance. Handles great and looks mean.

Looks great! Once I wear my tires out, I am sticking with the stock rims and my spacers. For now, I love the look of my paid for stock rubi tires.

Looks good! Were you only rubbing at full lock, or was it worse than that?

Since it's a common question, it might be helpful if you say what size those tires are.

no more rubbin with 33" inch wheels and 1,5" spacers without a lift?
How wide are your tires? (Answered already: 285)
