Right Stock rim rubbing on the A Arm

[tman2th]

So the right stock Rim is rubbing on the little tab that is welded on the a arm. Anyone know why. The left side clears just fine and doesn't even get close. Just a heads up, I have no idea what I am looking at so if I get some terminology wrong I apologize and am totally up for learning! TIA

Pictures are deceiving from my end, but looks like the right side tire is scrubbing on the inside of the tread. Just because the centers measure the same, doesn't mean it's not out of alinement. Can you take it to an alignment shop?
