Wheel rub at full lock

Got my new steering box and pump into my Firebird, wondering what to do about my front tires rubbing pretty bad on the inner fender liners at full lock either way. Wheels are stock 14" turbocasts and the tires aren't too wide by any means. Made sure the liners aren't falling off and they're fine. Thoughts?

Pretty normal for 16x8 wheels and 245 50 16 tires.
Really no real need to go full lock. I've learned to not do it on all my cars.
