Housing ? Are talking about wheelwells? What back spacing wheels are you running ? Wheel spacers?


Jeep with stuff on it. [emoji631]
 
Welcome to Wayalife! Stop by the "Give us a Wave" thread and tell us a little bit about yourself. Also are you talking about you tires rubbing and if so, where are they rubbing?
Also maybe a mod could move this to the JK tech thread?

If those are bushwacker fenders, which they seem to be, you will need to flex it out, and see where the inner molded section is rubbing. I had to trim quite a bit running 37s on my old 2 door. It all depends on the jeep tho where it needs to be done, you just need to take you time and flex then see where and go from there. Longer rear arms could help out to center the axle a little more in the wheel well.
