Thats 100% of the reason why they are rubbing, because your rims are not stock. Its a back spacing issue for sure.

 

It's not that they arent stock, its that he or the PO didnt do research before buying them. I hope you didn't buy those rims. A post here and a google search could have prevented that.

Just turn the tires inside out. Problem solved lol.

 

yea when i bought the truck about 2 months ago it had these rims on it with the tires the way they are. i wasnt sure ifi turned the tires around it would fix it so i had to ask if it were something else

 

by the way what rims are the ones on my truck

 

Don't flip the tires, it was only a joke. That will destroy your hubs. You are SOL without different rims.

 

why am i SOL? why would it ruin my hubs. i think they are mounted backwards anyway. the white walls are facing inward and im sure they are supposed to be facing outward

 

Its not a huge deal, just look around for the factory rims, or get the factory spacing figures, and then pick up some affordable rims like the cragers on summit racing. Mount your tires on those and the problem will be over.

Judging by the picture, it seems like you dont have enough backspacing, maybe the tire rubs the frame or control arm? You definately have enough room for wheel well clearance lock to lock....

you COULD get spacers to move the wheels outward a bit, but personally i would just get different wheels.

 

It had come up here and on the BMW forums I have posted on BUT they can cause major issues. Id just deal with it until you can get a replacement set of rims you like.

Oh and ALL my tires get mounted with the white lettering in. That's my preference
