You need to lift it or you could run spacers to put the wheels out a little further and it wouldn't rub
Agree, those are 2 options to eliminate the problem. I just haven't decided what I want to do.
Even with the spacers it will still rub on the fender you are right tho he needs spacers and need to lift the front it have to be lifted 7 inches from the tire thread meaning the space from the fender to the thread have to be 7 inches but he will also have to buy the ReadyLift 2.25 inch Front Forged Torsion Keys for the Canyon, Colorado and install it that’s what I did with mine
I'm having the same issue unfortunately but I'm weighing my options. Hopefully I'll figure something out soon.
I would not do a lift. To run 35s you need a 4 inch lift and you will not gain any ground clearance at all. You will only make your H3 unstable due to the higher body and frame height. I run 38-39s on my H2 with no lift.
You could install some adjustable steering stops, similar to what H1s have...then it will never rub.
And yes you can change the sway bar...I am working on a new design for my H2 that will also work for your H3...just need sometime to finish the design and test it out!
PolarBear00777 you’re information is wrong bro
did you finish you design yet i would buy it
Me: Doctor it hurts when I do *this*.
Doctor: Don't do that then.
You need to add spacers and lift the front with new ready lift torsion key that’s what I did with mine I also installed MAXX Shackle Shackle Kit for the H3 to lift the rear and new extended shocks I’ve installed all those before I bought the rims and the tires now my hummer is about 10 ft higher the lift and spacers costed me like $350
Adam M I’ve been looking for a leveling kit...can u send me the link or name of it?
do they 35s fit with just a level kit (3inch front 2 inch rear)?
I used to the Rough Country leveling kit I'm not sure about that spacer some little concern you know I think it's the only way to fix it I'm not off roading my H3 I'm going to do some more upgrades
I know it is late - but I'm gonna say it anyway... You don't need Rough Country leveling kit at all. All you had to do was to crank the torsion bar as shown in my following video: ua-cam.com/video/OJXq58NzJyE/v-deo.html
I bet your leveling kit did not solve the rubbing problem.
I recently bought a 06 H3 with 285/75R16 K02s installed and I'm having the same "rubbing" when doing a hard turn during parking. Like yours, my truck's sway bars also have that part where it's already shiny due to frequent rubbing. Do you think switching to 265s will solve the problem?
It should solve the problem - but it is not a big deal... you never gonna turn that sharp on high speed. I have my truck for 10 years and it is just a bit annoying - but not problems
Thats odd the 285 rub as the adventure h3 came with that size stock
My friend how are you fix the problem I have the same problem with my H3
Unfortunately I didn't fix it yet - and had to go back to 33 inch tires. You can crank the torsion bar to reduce the rubbing - but you can crank it only so much without putting an additional pressure on CV half shaft.
There are 2 ways to fix it :
1. install lift kit
2. wheel spacers.
I don't like and don't recommend wheel spacer if you are off-roading at all.
BTW, many owners who have 35 inch tires are driving with this. I was driving on 35's for 6 years and just ignored it ... it is not a big issue - just annoying when off-roading and need to do sharp turns.
Aftermarket rims negative offset or lift
Wow !! You and mostly all of us have that same murmur rattle coming from your engine bay. I have a 2009 with 88,500 miles on it . I still can’t figure it out so I just lived with it. Do you know what it might me I never been told exactly what that was.
Hahaha, I call it Hummer sound and just living with it... for very long time now :-)
Its the timing tensioner takes a second to pump up pressure
@@NewRoad 240k on mine and it has it good to now it's normal
Exhaust manifold heat shield and harmonic vibration...???
I know this is kinda late but, what tire size and rims did you exactly had the 35's for? 315/70 R17? 315/75 R16?
And also, If you can know this, will a 305/70 R16 fit in a Hummer like this one too?
I had 315/75 R16 on Mickey Thompson Sidebiters rims. I am not sure if 305/70 R16 would fit to be honest
@@NewRoad well, isn't it that those 315s rubbed with the sway bars? Shouldn't a smaller 305 wheel width kinda fix that? No?
Some people don't have rubbing problem even with 315, so that must be something else in play. And, yes - the narrower tires should eliminate that problem
@@NewRoad
Mine rubs with the 305/70r16s !
Run Super Swapers SSR 35x10.5 lt 16s They don't rub.
I have a 06 h3 with 35s. And 3 inch ranch lift.
Lucky that you got the lift. I can't find any this days
Remove sway bars, way better for off road and no rubbing
Dude!! Where did you get that winch bracket from .. please let me know
The company which made them is no longer around. I'm not aware of anybody else who is selling it unfortunately.
NewRoad Adventures thank you so much for answering I appreciate it so greatly I’m having a custom shop fabricate one exactly the same as the gstyle website sold . Once again thanks.
@@hotroderic8318 No problem and good luck with fabricating one - I know some H3 owner end-up doing just that. Yea, that was gstyle website that was selling.
so what you are saying is that you actually need to move the sway bar...
At this point, all I can say is - I don't like it. I'm running 35" for 6 years now - and it was always annoying me. For now - I'm thinking to go back to 33" since my 35" getting old and it is time to sell them. When I have more time and $ - I might try lift it.
PolarBear00777 ... you can't move sway bar. Only way to move it drop bracket but it will not solve unless you lift the suspension. The kit have everything to install, in some models have drop brackets for sway bar. In my Chevy Suburban, I had 6" lifted suspension and the sway bar is turnover and mounted stock location and stock links. Never had any problem since.
you have to do an offset wheel
I can't find those that I like and same bore size
Hey bud! Can you throw some specifics at me? Like, what offset are u running now? What are the wheel&tire sizes
Hey there, I came back to OEM rims because they fit perfectly and I don't need to use hub centric rings. Also, I downsized from 35's Mickey Thompson MTZ to 33's (285/75r16) Wrangler MT/R with kevlar. I was annoyed with rubbing as shown in this video, and don't think that 35's have big advantage in off-roading over 33's anyway. 33's are perfect size for people who use H3 as a daily drive and take it off-road from time to time.
@@NewRoad u did leveling? Or lift?
@@NewRoad do you have pictures with 33's on????
@@user-rf2tu4sg6s I just leveled by cranking torsion: ua-cam.com/video/OJXq58NzJyE/v-deo.html
Here is the last video with 33: ua-cam.com/video/eMehz-RFQfU/v-deo.html
33 don't look as cool as 35s - but doing great job in all conditions. BTW, in this video I have 33 on mickey thompson sidebiters rims - which have a bit of offset I think... which gives a bit wider look than on OEM rims. Still... I'm on OEM rims and selling mickeys
Are those new tires? That really stinks. I want to run 35s on my h3. But like yours it's only leveled. I have to reconsider things now 😥
Those tires have seen many roads, they are at the end of use. I have done a lot of off-roading with this setup and was OK... was just annoying to hear that rubbing.
Humman Off-Road Adventures ahhhh you just keep them shined up real nice 😉 I'm going to look into 33's more... Although 35s would still be ideal
You might need a spacer. 1.5 or 2 inches
I don't want to risk using spacers in off-roading that I am doing
Also if you are in Canada, Spacers in a lot of places are actually illegal to use, mechanics find them on your vehicle and they will deem it not road worthy because of all the accidents associated with improper installation of the spacers to begin with.
I'd honestly suggest going with a new rim possibly. I've got Maverick's from Ultra Motorsports on mine and it stands the wheels off by about an 3/4" to 1" I was looking at running 35's on mine for the next time I get new tires. See what happens. Link to a picture of the rims, as well as my truck currently.

Might be an option in future!
Thank for sharing. Look awesome! Do you know what offset those rims have? Where did you buy them?
www.ultrawheel.com/wheel/30/234-235-maverick/?finish=1875 Has all the tire specs for the rims I have there. I bought mine from Travale Tirecraft in Beamsville ( www.ttstire.com/contact_beamsville.php ) . For all five it was around 1200 bucks installed. Worth it, imo. These aren't chrome over aluminum, so no galvanization issues to deal with. Only -real- issue that I have with them is that the lugs -are- tight to get a socket into, but apart from that? They look great (imo) and function just fine.
Thanks, i'll take a look. I'm actually looking for new rims - but with big enough offset to run 35's. The only reason I went back to 33's - was that annoying rubbing.
You need lift, it will solve plm
Still on the fence with lift option
Then don’t run 35s
