Ok.. just to clear it up.. I have stock steel rims, no mods to the suspension (heck, even my arilift 1000's are flat) the torsion bars have not been moved.. I have flexed it till the opposing wheels are just rocking off the ground and I had no rubbing at all even with full turn to turn of the wheels...

Yes, the "wide tire package" did come with steel rims.. they are the 15X7 (I could not remember if they were 7" or 8")
Also, these steelies kick butt!! They are so damn heavy.. they weigh about the same as a 1 ton truck rim!! Nice for off road, they take a hell of a hit with out bending.. I got t-boned right on the wheel that bent an axle shaft.. So just for kicks, I bent the bead lip back out (it was not into the bead, just the lip) on the rim and had a spare mounted on it.. Would you believe that it balanced perfectly with minor weight..
