Has anyone ever had problems with wheels rubbing to the track rod arms if not using spacers?

I found that the 15x8 steels I have with 0 offset catch the steering arm mounts if I dont use wheel spacers, are you sure the wheels are 15x7?

Wheel width is measured between the mounting seat of the rim not the outside edge of the flange so it is possible for the j7 to be near 8 inches total width depending on how the flange is designed.
