Default New Center Link

Guys that have put bigger tires on their NBS trucks. I want to run like a 305 or 285 75 16. I truck pull and do not want to put a leveling kit on the truck. I know the tire is going to rub when turning. Will a straight center link reduce the rubbing? What do you think?

I just lowered the torsion bars on my truck tonight and I only rub at full lock with 305's. I know you have a NBS truck but I had a customer in here yesterday with a NBS truck with only 285's and we had to turn his torsion bars up 8 full turns to get it to stop rubbing. That was with 20x9 KMC rock stars though... I would think a straight center link would stop most of the rubbing due to the decrease in turning radius, but we haven't put one on a NBS truck yet so I don't know for sure.
