Both of my front tries rub the back of the fender/fender skirts during turns. The alignment always checks out. What can I do to stop this?.

Sounds to me like you might have taller than stock tires installed.

What size are your rims and what size tires do you have on them?
Unless you have some kind of front end damage it would have to be your tires.

 

All OEM. Ran the factory Gatorbacks for 12 or 13 years. Rubbed the whole time. When still under warranty, the dealer said they all do it....except I didn't see very many others that did. Did see a few, so I didn't push.

I've owned 3- 3rdgens, 86'/91'/91', and none of them rub in the front at all except when I installed a taller tire.

 

I guy i used to know had a IROC and his 16"s always rubbed.

There can be only one!!

 

Mine did it when I got new tires. I don't remember now what brand they were, came from Sears, 245VR16's, and I had to change them out for Yokohamas', because they were rubbing so bad. The Yoko's still rub, but I just don't go lock to lock unless I have to.
