230/35/20 or 234/35/20 would fix that

or just use jergens lotion if you still have a rubbing issue

go slower and don't grip it so tight. You don't want to rip it, do you?

Use KY, jk.... Best for our car is 245/30/20 in the front and 295/25/20 in the back I just found out that running any other setup can cause brake failure. This is for non sport and makes ur speedometer not accurate. Go on 1010tires.com they have a tire sizing calculator

When is it rubbing? I have 245/35/20 in the front. never rubbed in the front. Only the rear passenger. I just have to adjust the camber. Going to do this weekend but I need to put my OEM ones back on. sucks.

295/25/20 = best setup? I dont think that is close to being accurate.
