Rubbing with factory wheels
 
Just curious if anyone has any wheel rub on the factory wheels/tires. I back out of my carport and make a 2 pt turn to go down my driveway but it feels like I get a lot of rub when cutting the wheel. It's not a hard cut so thats why I'm worried. I would assume the factory wouldn't produce something that would do that, but I just wanted to check. Any input is appreciated.

Everything is 100% factory

no way, most people run 245/275 and no one has rubbing problems

Lexus wouldn't release a car if it did this...

That was my thinking. I might take it down to Lexus and make sure everything is good.

Ya I think your imagining it. Look and see if you see rubbing marks

That's what is throwing me off. Something is giving me a "feel" thought the steering wheel, but there are no marks on the tire or on the inside of the wheel wells.

Cut the wheel all the way, get under the car, and check the wheel well liner, maybe it somehow bent back that is causing your rubbing issue.

^^^^he is right....

jack the car up and remove the wheel and take a peak inside...if there's rubbing, you'll see wear either on the tire, or on the fender liner or in your brain...insane in the membrane!!!
