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!
When I switched to 315 tires they would rub a little on the control arms. To stop that problem all I did was bond a small piece of metal to one steering stop each side. Can't remember what thickness, but think it was about .032 or maybe 040". problem disappeared. Never did notice any significant difference in turning radius.

I have Toyo MT's 35 1250 17's with 17x8.5 stock rims, I had to install 10mm backspacers to prevent the tires from rubbing upper control arms at full turn. No problems afterwards I also added to the back to keep things even.

I have a 2.5" level kit, .5" longer control arms, adjustable track bar and am running 35x12.50R18 with 18x9 rims with +12 offset. No rubbing at all, plenty of room to spare. You have to get the correct rims and longer control arms.
