tire rub
 
Hello all,

My wife has a 2017 Sport Tech, front tires rub slightly when she backs out into street from driveway (slight incline) All stock, tires came on it from factory. Any other Sport owners experience the same?

Thank you!

What are the size of the tires?

Since everything is stock, does she turn the wheel when she backs up? If so, I think that noise is normal, tires scrubbing on asphalt. It should make the same noise on a flat surface as well.

Yes, all stock. I'm 90 percent sure it's rubbing inside of fender when she turns sharp, right at end of driveway when backing out. It's not a huge deal, just wondering if other Sport models do same thing, or should I look around for an issue.

My sport never had that, only would ever really scrape the undershroud on the driveway if anything. Sure it’s not lowered or spacers or anything?
245/40/19 in the front right?

Get her to try it on a flat surface.

Could be that.
