Ok, I just went out into the garage and stuffed my hand up in there and I think I see what you are talking about... I can barely get a finger between the tire tread and the suspension, I now see how the (slightly narrow) but a fair bit taller tire could make a significant difference in rub potential on the wider, 10" rim (which has tire significantly more inboard than the OEM stock SS wheels/tires... It seems the tire would actually rub the inner tread, not the sidewall of the tire, when the suspension compresses even slightly... I think going forward, I'll just stick with the stock SS 1LE sizes of 285/30 and 305/30... I'm thinking the extra 10mm out back won't make that much of a difference and if it throws off the traction control (due to being out of tolerance) might be more of a headache than it is worth...
