Tires Rubbing!

I thought when I got my 35" ProComp Mud Terrains, that there was no rubbing the first week I got them, but now am noticing that they are rubbing at almost full lock, they are not rubbing the fender/body, but the lower control arms, will this do any damage, do any of you guys have rubbing issues? They rubbed my "A" and "C" in SKYJACKER off of my lower coontrol arms! .

Not unless your driving in circles enough to rub through the tires. It might grab pretty good if you turn tight and hit a big bump (such as a curb). My 33's rub my fenders all the time, and other than rub the paint off and leave marks on the tires there isn't any damage.

It's my pot and I'll stir it if I want to. If you're not careful, I'll stir your's as well!

My 315's rub a bit and all I did was JB Weld a small piece of 3/32" metal to the stops. The turning radius has increased a tad, but not enought to bother me.

dont know if u are running stock wheels, but aftermarket wheels USUALLY have less backspacing and will give u the extra room u need.
