Just got new rims and tires. I have a 6 inch lift and I only rub at full lock when to the right it's louder when going over a bump while turned all the way to the right. What's the best way to fix this?

How can it rub one way and not the other?

First thing I'd do is get the alignment checked and see if there's any more room to give it more positive caster. That would pull the whole wheel/tire forward. Obviously this is only a good option if you have enough clearance on the front bumper. If there's no room for that then your next option is a cut off wheel. I'd start with just the inner fender liner but from what I can see you don't have enough clearance on the fender either which is not at all ideal.

Also, it rubs on one side and not the other because caster settings are not the same from side to side. They're adjusted differently for the crown on the road.
