Default Help with F150 issues

I just joined this forum after recently purchasing a 2020 F150 Lariat Sport 2.7.
I'm looking foe some help with a few issues.
1. I installed a set of BF Goodrich K02's on Fuel rims only to find that the tires are rubbing on the front steel chassis member when on full lock, has anyone else experienced this?

2. The entertainment system will not hold the Sirius channel and every time I start the truck it reverts back to an FM station.
3.No power at the trailer socket for trailer running lights (checked the fuses)

Any suggestions would be gratefully received

Either remove the interfering area to the Tire or change the Wheel Tire combo.
On the reset, the Battery voltage is going to low under the Cranking Starter load.
Battery is low, needs charging or cables at the Battery need attention or a poor ground or any combination of them.
As for trailer lighting, there may be a delay on your year or a fault you have to chase down.
Good luck.

Please include wheel and tire specs so we can help regarding the rub. Is it rubbing on the crash bars? If its not bad, you could try spreading the crash bars. Don't recommend removing them but its your truck amigo.

1. Yes, a lot here have had to deal with that. You can loosen the 2 bolts on the top of the front and rear crash bars with a 15mm wrench to push them out by hand, you'll get about 1/4" of clearance. If that's not enough, you can use a porta-power, bottle jack, or high-lift jack to push them out further.

I didn't want to suggest that to save myself the grief I'd get from the crash bar mob lol.

I answered #3 yesterday in your other introductory post. You must be too impatient to go look or your waiting for the truck fairies to fix it for you.
