Stock Calipers rubbing stock wheels?


Not anything scraping, that was just after rotation.

Stick on wheel weights scuff up the caliper before leaving the chat? Clearance has to be tight with 15's...
 
The ranger has been doing substitute duty as the F150 gets it's evap core replaced, hopefully today or tomorrow it will be back parked so I can dig into exactly what part of those calipers are rubbing. Yes these are the stock forged Alcoa Level II wheels. The rubbing was all done 30 seconds after rotation, but still I believe that there are some mounting "looseness" when the mounting bolts are tight. Pics coming, I promise.
 
Finally had to take the wheel off and turns out it's nothing to worry about, simply just the "rattle clip" got bent around and as someone mentioned here the clearances are tight no doubt. Caused by the tire clowns not accounting for that there is not enough room for the stick on weights, so now that everyone can see, I believe I will trim back the clips and no more problem. Have to use a dremil and a cutoff wheel. Thanks for all your help guys!
