You could adjust the steering stops, but then you lose turning radius. Different wheel off-set, you can run wheel spacers as mentioned by your tire guy.

Curious, what are the tires scrubbing on? Steering linkage? Springs? Fenders?

My 33x10.50 tires scrape on the joint at the end of the pitman arm, enough to wreck the boot, and on the shackle bolt. I have a 2" lift. The drivers side tire also rubs on the steering box end of the drag link ?? (the rod from the steering box to the pitman arm).

I have a small groove in the side tread from the shackle bolt. It has been there for the life of the tire and I am not worried about. I could put skinnier tires or spacers to solve the problem.
