having slight rubbing issues

i have a 2001 screw with 22inch liquid metal wingmans and 305/45/22 falken tires and when i turn my wheel all they way deep to either side while backing or going forward, i get a slight rub. should i have gone to 40 series tires or do i need to remove my fender wells. it almost seems as if the truck wants to stop moving. my suspension is ok and all so i don't understand.

If they are rubbing on the front bumper's lower valance, you can trim that slightly. If they are rubbing on the backside of the wheelwells, you can drill a couple holes through it and use zipties to pull it back for a little more clearance. Could you post a pic?

Those look nice. I bet they are rubbing those mudflaps. I'd take them off.

Why not post pictures one atop the other? It is quite aggrivating having to scroll across to see those two huge pictures....
