my diff is 1.5 inches foward, and didnt have any issues with rubbing, cept a little on my shock but that can be fixed with bigger offset rims or spacers

i would agree that 1.5 is good for 35's. i had no suspension lift, 2 inch body and axle foward and the 35's didnt rub. will now have a problem with them rubbing on the front of the fender well.

I run Q78`s (just under 36) with 2 inch wheel spacers and have moved front forward 40mm. I have also belted the back of the wheel arch with a sledge hammer and slightly cut the guards. I don`t have any rubbing on body work at all, but the tyres do come to within about 2mm when new.

i had 35mm forward, no body lift and had plenty of room for 33s 35 would have fit without rubbing
