285/60/r18 severe tire rub!

Hello all! After replaceing upper/lower ball joint, rack, sway bar bushing, tie rods, and some wabfab disco's I have pretty bad tire rub I am going to trim my in fenders a bit and see if that helps but i was wondering if a 1' body lift would help at all? I plan on getting the 3' suspension lift from toytec when the funds come around but i was thinking of there body lift as a band aid fix. Thanks ahead for the advice take care Russ

Can you post a pic of your wheel & tire combo?

1" body lift won't help much if you are rubbing on pinch weld area.

Break out that cc and get your lift sooner instead of later.
