These GMC wheels have a HORRIABLE OFF SET and even with the 1.5" wheel spacers on, I get some minor tire to back half of spring contact at full turn.

The hub, despite the wheel spacers, is just inside of being completely flush with the flat spot on the rim, the place where tire weights go.. So that really sucks, but I was expecting this so its no suprise. At least they fit !

I drove around and made a U-turn and it barely rubs. Its real quiet though, I've been in rigs with much worse contact than this..
