randy88fj62 I am currently encountering this issue myself - I have 285/70/17 E-rated Wildpeak AT3Ws and panhard bar is definitely being rubbed. Including a picture. Should I just put it on my Sherpa roof rack for now and ratchet it down and over time as I do 5-tire rotations and it wears down...

Yeah, that recording is from inside the cabin in the driver's seat. That would make sense on the fan/shroud..I will look into that!

I recently purchased a 2006 V8 Sport Edition (117k miles) and boy do I love this car. I am working on making it my own and my next plan is to replace the XREAS suspension with maybe an OME kit or Bilstein 5100/OME coils. Then get some 265/70/17 Falken Wildpeak AT3Ws on. And, I have the TRD...

El Chapo is a fantastic name, and you have done some amazing work. Enjoy the fruits of your labor!

Wow, that is in great shape someone will be very happy with that!
