Great question. It does not rub because of the alignment (-1.75 degrees camber) and overall tire diameter.

Here is a picture from the Corkscrew at Laguna Seca under full compression while turning:

Pre-alignment it would rub on really hard left-hand turns under full compression. A good test (without causing too much damage) is a decent driveway entry...drive up/down at a severe angle and turn the wheel to see if it rubs the fender lip.

10 months. About 7400 miles.
Really like these tires. Lots of grip for canyon runs.
