      I run a 275/35/18 on the front and didn't have to move any brake line brackets.

      Mine just hits the frame at the steering box bolts first on the backside with a 2" drop spring and 18x8.5 with 245/40R18 tires...not sure how I could make them hit the brake line tabs as it looks physically impossible, or at least highly improbable. Do you have pictures showing the interference?
      It's what I does.

      these pics are with the stock tires with the front sitting on the ground . when i had the other wheels on i could not set them down on the ground. i guess that made the diff. ill have to see once i get the tires on the wheels.
      im running a SC&C stage 2 complete front upper and lower
