i just put 20s on my car with 8.5 in rims in the front and 9.5 the rear... i only RUB when i am in reverse while i am turning out of a parkin spot...i am barely turning the wheel maybe half to 3/4 of a turn... anyone know why this is the case... i have done full u-turns pretty hard in my car... at faster speeds and i don't get any rubbing... it rubs in the front.. i haven't put the car on jacks yet but i was wondering if someone else had the same problem i did thanks

 

Only reason I think of is, how the car dips when you are in motion... tail dips down as you move forward under accellaration and conversely nose would tip down in reverse.

After confirming your size is good with the offset you are using, check for loose plastic liner in the wheel well or issues with suspension.

It is a stretch, but I cant think of anything else.

but it doesn't happen when i am driving forward... and in reverse i am not going that fast to begin with.. so yea...

 

I put 245/45ZR17 tires on the stock rims (up 1 size in width) and I had a little rubbing only in reverse too, but that was only with the wheel cranked all the way in reverse

My mechanic put it up in the air and he found that the front fender lining was rubbing the tire a little, so he just used a small metal clip (kind of like a big paper clip) to hold the lining firmly against the fender. It took him like 30 seconds and cost about 10 cents. Hopefull your solution is as easy
