What offset wheel did you have? Several members run 245/35/20 squared with no issues at all. I'm about to run 245/35 myself but u got me worried

AMJAM is running a lot lower than the rest of us (looks to be tucking 1/2" of tire or so, correct?) . I am running 245/35 on a 9 with a ET35 and not rubbing when the top of the tire is equal to the wheel well. If I lower it to tuck about a half inch of tire, I will rub only on big bumps at higher speeds. With that said though, I will go to a 245/30 so I can tuck my fronts a little bit. Running HanKook v12s now as well. Here is a pic where I do not rub at all. Top of the tire meets the top of the wheel well.

Yeah that could be it my front doesn't clear speed bumps without angle involved but still I don't think I am lower than other guys on here. That said tyre wear is not bad as I am not running crazy camber maybe you guys are running more camber?

In the pic above I was running -2.3 camber on the rear and the front is just what it is since that is not adjustable. When I got the KWs put on 3 weeks ago now, I went to -3 camber and it started to eat the inside of the tire fast. So this weekend going to put it back to -2.3~2.5 on the rear. Also had my rear offset changed from a 42 to 44.5 because the KW coil overs are a lot softer than my H&R coil overs which is where I started to rub with more wheel travel. Tire cleared the top fender, it was rubbing right below where the bumper cover meets the body panel at 10 o'clock in your pic.
