The rear, they did make contact slightly when I came down that little ledge.
So what is needed to avoid the rub on the control arm? Wheel spacers?

Wheel spacers will work with stock wheels, or of course aftermarket wheels with more....or is it less....never can remember, backspacing. It only rubs at full lock.

285/70/17's measure +- 33' and are 12.5" wide. +- because each tire from different manufacturers will actually measure a little different

Edited: corrected my mistake. Sry.

My bad, in a hurry on the phone, that should read 285/70/17's. I'll fix my original post.
