Inside rub on full lock

I was wondering if I can do anything other than spacers so I don't rub when I make a u turn. Lol

Current setup:
ST coilovers
17x9 +45
245/40

You're rubbing even with coilovers? I wonder if it's the tie rod?

I'm actually not sure. I'm kind of in the same situation right now. I have 17x9 +45 wheels and am hearing what sounds like metal on metal rubbing at full lock when turned to the left. I'm still on stock suspension though.

You can select only the front, and with no lug nuts to drop the price significantly.

pretty sure spacers or beating on whatever is rubbing is the only way to get around not rubbing.

Or using a 17x8 +45
