It's better now, but the main problem is they are hitting the bracket where the edge of the fender is bolted to the front bumper located at about the red square in the pic. I hit it with the dremel and reduced the amount it protrudes, and it's better, but still rubs over a decent road imperfection. The rears are fine and have a 1" spacer with 285's. The fronts have 245/40/19's

I don't really want to run a lower profile tire as "feeling" the road is already at its threshold. If absolutely necessary, I'd do it. Here's what I'm thinking:

Machine inside of wheel to remove a few mm and machine rotor surface to remove a few mm. Hopefully, that would give me the offset to eliminate rubbing.

Your thoughts, alternate solutions, and opinions are appreciated.





In this next pic, you can see the bit of stretch the fronts have now with the 245/40/19's with the 9.5" wheels:
