Hello, good day to everyone. First of this is my first time setting up a suv(body on frame). This is my wifes Land Cruiser that I’m setting up. I put on a new set of wheels 18x9 0 offset and 275/70/18 toyo open country at3 tires. Now my problem are I’m having a rubbing issues front tire fender liner and bumper clips, If i invest in a suspension upgrade will the rubbing go away and have a better ride? Ride is now kinda bumpy not sure if its because of the E load tires. And when going 60+mph the car shakes but the steering wheel doesn’t vibrate. I can see the headrest vibrates. Maybe just a rebalance the tires? Any suggestions on a proper lift for long term and will not break the bank? Thanks and be gentle to me please. 😁

0 offset with a 275 is a pretty aggressive fitment.

Have they been balanced. Surely the place you bought them from can help?
 
They scratched my wheels and they don’t want do anything about it. Will try to bring it to other shop. Thinking of changing the tires to 265/70 maybe the rub will go away? Anyone looking for a new tires pm me 😁. Love the look and stance but don’t like the rub 😭

E load tires aren’t going to improve your ride that’s for sure.
Suspension upgrade or lift kit can only help with rubbing on the road. Lifts do not make wheel wells bigger, thus, your probably gonna rub if you full stuff/lock.
If I screwed up my wife’s ride like that… I’d probably admit to my mistake and get it back to original. That’s my suggestion.
