i think you may be limited by the rim offset and your drop....whats the offset and is it front or rear thats rubbing?

On the rear a 35 offset with a 10" rim works fine. So does a 10.5" rim

You mean a 35 rear offset will fit a nitto invo 315 or a Michelin PSS 315? PSS are quite a bit wider then invo.
My 10.5 is fitting just rubs on big bumps so i'd like to either measure my offset then shave it or buy a 305 tire thats about .3-.5 less of a width. so it clears.

Why don't you try running a 3mm spacer on the rear, it might give you the extra clearance you need, as others have pointed out, the wheel offset is the issue.

A spacer would make them stick out past the fenders.

As you can see the tire has a bulge i dont know why but when i measured the rear rims they where 10.5. The nitto invo is not (way to wide) just barely it actually clears no problem but oncei hit a big bump i hear it rub and the tire had a cut in the bulged area from hitting the innder fender. 1. who has a tire that runs about .3-.5 skinnier? nitto invo says there 315 is 12.4 wide? or 2. roll fenders or 3. figure out offset and shave the mounting surface to clear free up some room.

I run a 11 inch wheel with 315 nitto tires lowered no issues.

If 3mm makes that big a difference, you're the dumbass for buying wheels with the wrong offset.

Based on everything you have said I think you need to run a more narrow tire(305), or buy new wheels.

HAHA.....so true. At first I thought he wanted to stick with a 315, but a skinnier one than he has already tried.
