Also the shocks have a bunch to do with it. With the std OME's there isn't much droop, so the stuffed tire is more vertical in the wheel well, making for an easier fit. With L's or longer, the increased droop increases the axle/tire angle, needing more bump/wheel spacer.

His doesn't normally rub, except when it has a good coat of mud taking up the space.
