I lost my passenger side one and sucked up water through the intake. Hydrolocked engine tuned into split block overnight, BE CAREFUL.

Different suspension setup, or simple... Chnage ur tires, that's way too wide and your tires will lose tread 3 times as fast

its not the width thats your issue its how tall it is.
odds are when you turn the wheel its rubbing in the back side of the wheel well on a seam of metal and its cutting the tire just hammer it flat or run a shorter tire
