New rims with backspacing rubbing issues! HELP
I have a 96 xj sport with a RC 3 inch lift sitting on 31's. I was tired and sick of the tires rubbing on my lower control arms so i bit the bullet and bought a set of American Racing outlaw 2 rims 15x8 with 3.75 inch backspacing. Now installed on the same tires on the jeep it rubs at full lock only on the drivers side of the rear fender flare on the inside. This only rubs or is close on the drivers side. passenger side is perfect and has enough clearance. Any ideas why this is happening and how to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
