Cool

The problem is improper backspacing on the rims. My street tire rims do the same thing. I have 3 1/2" studs, so I made a set of 3/8" thick alum spacers that I put on before the rim and tire go on. I run 275-60-15s. If changing to a longer studs is OK, it is cheaper than a set of rims. Once you clear the inside problems, you will get the outside ones, then you get the bat. Don't give up, and remember "Big tires go faster"
