Josh,

The tires are rubbing one screw/bolt just behind the rear side of the front tires (inner plastic wheel well). The only time they will rub is when the wheel is slightly turned (a little more when suspension is compressed). What you can do is use a heat gun and heat all around this one bolt and push it in. I have not done this but it looks like it would help (won’t hurt).

Tires of one size larger look much better on GX. With OEM tires the wheel well looks almost "too empty".
