Default New tires rubbing on turns. Need suggestions

I have a 2000 electric TXT. I purchased some new tires off of Ebay that are 20x8x10. I purchased these because I didn't want to put a lift on the cart and all the websites say that these will fit without a lift. The left front tire rubs when I make a right turn. I am not sure what it is rubbing on and I don't see anything that it is touching when I look at it. I thought that I would be ok since they are the same width as the stock tires. I measured the actual height of the tires and they are exactly 20" tall. I am not certain if I need wheel spacers or a lift kit or something else. Can anyone suggest an easy way to rectify this situation? I have included a picture of the cart.

Kinda depends on what it’s rubbing on... could be that the driver side spring is just so worn out that it’s causing clearance issues... over the years, some fat golfer may have squashed that spring pretty good... In all seriousness though...Most golf carts lean to the left after a few years due to flattened driver side springs

I solved my own problem! There was a piece of plastic that was pushed down on each side after I installed the headlights. I cut that piece out and its perfect!

Did you get those tires and wheels off of eBay? If so, I’ve bought about a half dozen sets of those now. They are excellent and extremely good quality for the price.
