Mine are actually vinyl wrapped and a steamer was used to heat it up and stretch it, there isn t a bubble or wrinkle in mine at all.

What do you have your dampening set to? I'm at 6 clicks from the softest setting. I rub in the top of my wheel wells as well. I see rub marks. I'm running a 255x30x20 in the rear on a 9.5 rim with +33. Maybe I need to stretch it to make it work.

I find it hard to believe your rubbing the top of the wheel well, I have a wider more aggressive wheel am super low and don t think I ve ever rubbed the top of my wheel well with 6 people in the car tucking complete tire and upper lip of rim. I don t know maybe you need a different tire a 225/30 would be a nice stretch on a 9.5 thats what Ill be running on my new front wheels. Good luck.
