I just bought an 09 1500 and didn't notice a rub. The tire size is 33x/12.50/20. The rub is on the inside on a bar (possibly control arm?) on both front tires. When I turn really sharp, it rubs on a small bar toward the front. I know these tires are no where near the size of factory tries. What can I do to eliminate the rubbing? I'm sorry I sound like an idiot, but I am new to trucks. Thanks in advance for the help!

Welcome to the forum!

I'd add some spacers. They go in between the wheel / tire assemble and the hub at the wheel lugs. 1/4" will probably do the trick.
