Angry Front tires rubbing!

everytime i have my wheel turned all the way the font tires like to rub in the wheel wells. I have the stock tire size on it 245/50/16's and the wheel well is on there fine not hanging or anything. It will do it on both sides not all the time only on sharp turn turned all the way. Could it be somthing in my front end? dont know anymore...thanks.

Thumbs up

One word.....Offset!!!! The rim offsets are different from front to back. I once rotated my tires front to back and I had the same rubbing!!! Have you rotated your tires recently or did you buy the car this way.....Bring it in to your tire man and have him pull the front tire off and look at the tie rod (I think). You should have rubbing where the rim is too wide.

I hope this helps you

I know exactly what yo are talking about too because my rims are the offset ones and each say front or rear on them but all of them are were they should be so that can't be it. It actually seems like my left front tire sticks further back more towards the rocker panel. More on he left tire side then the right one but the right one seems a little bit off too. Any other ideas of what it could be?
