OH. I just thought about this - I didn't think about the hose lines on the front! Anyhow, that being said, it shouldn't be very close to the tire or wheel at all - maybe an inch away at the closest, that I know of. Are you running larger tires on stock or aftermarket wheels? The backspacing and offset on the wheels coupled with the tire size might be an issue.

yea the new line i got from oreilys was off by a country mile,when i turned the wheel to lock it rubbed the tire.so i did some creative bending with the new line(very carefully)and bent it enough to where it now clears beautifully!
