71-4R3SONS,

Do they rub all the time or only when turning? Could you get away with it by not turning the wheels a full turn? Just curious.

To be honest with you, I did not turn the wheels when I test fit one front wheel/tire without the spacer/adapter. Just looking at it, I knew that turning (not even to lock) would cause major rubbing. Since you can't "skid steer" with your X's brake system, I'd highly recommend against mounting the combo without the ability to steer "lock to lock".
