I have 14x8 rims up front on the wikivan, with 235/60r14 tires. Tires/rims that wide will rub the lower forward corner of the wheel well opening. Its easy to work this protruding corner in with a hammer. There is alot of excess metal sticking out and it doesn't need to be there. Just pull the wheel off and with the van up on a jackstand, thump that corner in with a BFH. This is what I did and no rubbing since.
