it could be the make of tyres ur usin. some tyres will rub whereas otheres wont. altho they will be the same size the different tyres are made in a different way so theres gonna be slight differences. try changin them about - puttin back wheels to front and front to back!!!
i had federals on my back wheels and thay never rubbed ( -40mm) and now i've got nankang on and they rub like hell.... you def sure they are the rite offset???? did you buy them new or did you get them secondhand
