That can be the differnece between rubbing or not but since you're on springs it might just be something you have to live with until can upgrade to coils

Also, the brand of tire has something to do with it as well. When I ran BFG KDW2's it was a much fatter tire than the current set of Continentals that I am running and it rubbed more often

If I were you I would just sell those tires and downgrade to 35-series, it's going to be your easiest and cheapest option
