I have had my front wheel wells extended as far as they go and my 245s still rub on my front fender.. any ideas on how to fix this?

What exactly do you mean by "extened as far as they can go"?
You mean you beat the pinch welds down?

 

[AlexDisaster]

did that and had a friend use a heated anvil to recess the splash guard plastic

what wheels?

with 3" of lift
the pinches pounded
and the fog lamp doors moved
you should have no rub with 245/75 MTR's
unless you have a strange wheel B/S

I know that I can fit 245/75 MTR's with nothing but OME med springs and the OE wheels

the wheel i have is the atx predator and it has a huge offset

Well there's your problem .....if you have more than a 4.5" BS then it will more than likely rub. 4.5 up to stock 5.5 you shouldn't have any problems. If your wheels are a 3.75" BS then get use to the rub.

I didn't go that extreme, but I used a Dremel instead.
