my tires rub a little when making a sharp turn. anyone think that wheel spacers might correct this? by the way. its a 2000 chevy 3500 w/ 305- 16's if that helps. no lift
 
wow 305's rub on your 3500? I have 305's on a 99 2500 and no lift and they don't rub at all.

To answer your question, yes it should help, unless it's rubbing on your bumper or rear portion of your fender, then I'm not sure.
 
Spacers may help they will also reduce ball joint and wheel bearing life. What doess the tire rub?
 
Spacers will KILL the hub bearings quickly and the ball joints will follow.

are you rubbing the lower bottom corners of the plastic valance under the bumper? easy triming with a cut off tool and dress it with fine sand paper.
 
yeah its rubbing that black plastic fender cover on the outside of the body. (if that makes sense to you) just loud as hell and honestly a little embarrasing in public. i guess i can trim that back.
really wish i could afford the lift it needs, but lifting a 3500 with the ifs is rediculous, and you have a hard time finding the body lift if you can at all. there seems to be every lift known to man but the one for mine
 
16x10 is probably your problem along with incorrect backspacing. These must be aftermarket wheels???

IIRC you need 8.5" or 9" wide wheels to make it work.
