If it was me, I'd measure the offset of the wheels that rub that are on the truck now. Depending on how much rub and how quickly they rub, I'd go with 1/2" or 1" less offset for the same size rim (I assume they are 15"). If you go with a larger rim like 16" then the problem might completely go away with the same offset you have now.
This may sound goofy, but here's an idea. Cut a disc of plywood with a 15" diameter. Mock up a ring of paper around the edge to simulate the rim interior. Bolt it on and see what will clear. | | |
