They rub the front control arms in tight parking lot turns but not enough to chunk the tread, just enough to wear the paint off the control arms. As for the tire, I couldn't be happier. I have a little over 10k on them and you can't tell. They look as good as new. I rotate my tires every 7k to 10k and run them at max PSI. These are also D rated but I pull my trailer (10k lbs on bumper pull) and there is no sidewall flex. They hook up great too. All in all, they are a great deal!

No, the problem is the width of the tire and the offset of the wheel. It rubs when turned to full lock. I could have a 10" lift kit and it would do the same thing because the problem isn't with height, it's how close the tire is to the control arms. It's really not a big deal...
