    Hello,

    Recently put some 17” Ray 10’s on my 2021 Tacoma Offroad. Stock shocks and height. Michelin LTX AT2 size 265/65/17 tires. I have the -10mm Ray 10.

    The front tires are rubbing slightly on the Weathertech mudflaps.

    I thought the 30.6” diameter tires weren’t supposed to rub.

    Thoughts?

    it's your wheel, the width and -10mm swings the tire at a longer arch, so rub rub .. basically too little of backspacing

    Someones comment on TW isn't going to change that fact that you're experiencing rubbing.... just my thoughts.

    Generally speaking, you will always have to remove the front mud flaps to avoid rubbing.
