Of course that will be trolled by a tire 'expert'

You see the picture above ,hopefully that explains any of your doubts . I replied above ,I have the same rub spot as the picture. A friend ,and neighbor with a Montana, with Sailun 85's has one tire rubbing slightly same as the picture ,and the same as mine.
The tires are 1" taller ,you gain 1/2" everywhere, you are 1/2" closer to the plastic wheel well moldings , you hit a bump the tire come ups, and closes that gap on the curve of the molding , pretty simple to figure out . Makes no difference on section width ,unless they were wider ,and rubbed on the inside . But they are rubbing when hitting a bump its obvious. Some do ,some don't . I know of three that do . You are apparently one that doesn't .
Not a tire expert ,nor a troll, but you needed to get set straight.
