During a hard turn with one side or the other loaded, the tire will kiss the wheel well but thats only during a harsh corner and not enough to hear it or cause damage on the tire. The only way I know its rubbing is because I can see the paint on the inner wheel well. Keep in mind, I have a Ford 9" with aftermarket brakes and total width is about 3 /8" wider rotor to rotor than a stock rear with drums.
