Thanks mountie, Tires originally on the truck (BF Goodrich A/T's) that didnt rub were 285/75R16
The ones on it now (Goodyear Duratracs) are 285/70R17 (which is also my fault for saying they are an inch wider, i thought the old ones were 275)
In theory they shouldnt rub since the width is the same but they do, also notably the sidewalls on the duratracs stick out wider than the A/T's, even with a higher pressure, but also the sidewalls on the A/T's as they are described on the sidewall are a 3 ply sidewall whereas the duratracs are only 2 ply, which in turn would make them sag out a little more (In my opinion anyway)
But even at the back by the leaf springs, i can barely fit my hand between the tire and leaf springs and i have skinny hands
