The rubbing is quite harmless. If you want to save money, back off the steering .5" when you hear it. If you want it gone, make sure there's no spacer between the front wheel and the hub to remove ( this would solve the problem). Then buy or trade for wheels/ tires in the stock size ( listed in the manual or on the drivers door post). The wheels you have may be worth $400 0r $2000, depending on who made them. The mfg should be stamped somewhere on the wheels. You can list them for sale on this forum in the classified section. Welcome to the club!
