New Wheels For My 2010 TL Issues

Hiya all,
So I purchased some new wheels for my TL, and am having an issues with them hitting/rubbing not really sure since they are new. I only hear it if I hit a hump of bump in the road, but its not all the time. After inspecting taking off the wheels and inspecting them, I cannot see any place where they are hitting. So, i'm confused as to what to do. I don't want them to hit/rub, and am wondering if the tire place messed up. Everything I read, and looked up said they would fit without rubbing including the manufacture, any ideas or help would be much appreciated. Thank you

20x9 5x120 +35mm offset w/ 255/35-20 ---------- these are what i put on the my 2010 TL, but i think they did a 35 all the way around, not a 100% sure though.

There's a tab that sticks out. You might be hitting that. If you are, you'll need to shave it down/off. Here's the thread on it

if it's rubbing, it will show on tire or inner fender via wear.

the bumper tab actually cuts/digs into tire, so you'll know if it's that

Thank you, I will check it out when i get back home. Is it required that I remove it or could I just leave it?

Well, if the tab is indeed cutting into tire, you'll want to remove the tab by grinding it off......

Thus why important to find where it's rubbing...

Should have gone with 245. That would've solved the issue with no rubbing.
