Smaller tires.....

Seriously though, what wheels are you running? Backspacing? Offset?

You have 3 options.
1. Aftermark lower control arms which are built for the bigger tires not to run.
2. New rims with more backspacing
3. Smaller tires

I had a similar issue with only 33s. My fix was wheels. - 24 offset gets them rubbers plenty of room at full lock
