How to stop tire rubbing

For those of you with big tires and a leveling kit. Will offset wheels get rid of the rub on the control arms. Or is there some other way to get rid of it or cut down some.

I have 4.5" backspacing and have no issues with the control arms. You will have to watch the fenders, and sidesteps if you have them though. I get slight rubbing in a hard right on the passenger side bar.

Offset wheels would be the first choice. I've got some moderate rub on my control arms with my 315/75/16's. I'm hoping the new wheels will help this.
