Post subject:  2005 Renegade Tire clearance?

I have an 05 Renegade with 245/75-16 BFG which grab the bottom air dam plastic when turning in reverse. With 2.5" of lift this is the only rubbing I notice. I was wondering what other Renegade drivers are experiencing. I was also considering 265/70-16 replacements and was wondering what kind of rubbing these would cause too.
I haven't had any pinch-weld rubbing at all.

I have 245/75/16 BFG KO's, but they are on Moab rims which push things out a little. I also have a 2.5" lift and get rubbing on the front wheel well near full lock. At full lock in reverse it catches the edge of the bumper as well. I pounded down the pinch weld and cut off the edges of the air dam before installing the tires, and plan on trimming up the front further. I doubt the rubbing will hurt anything, it just bothers me a little.
