Yeah that's probably where the problem is then if they can't get any blank wheels in stock

with 285s yes, but that's because my bumper is bent in on the passenger side because someone hit me in a parking lot. But I trimmed the lower valance so it doesn't rub anymore.

Also when I got the tires the rub a little so I trimmed both sides. So my truck really isn't a good comparison to see if yours would rub
