I would recommend down sizing your wheel size. If they are currently any bigger then 18 inches, its really uneccesary weight, and your killing your torque. Also 17x8" wheels shouldnt rub at all, and you'll get more life out of your tread. As far as the worn spot goes, I only know to replace parts that are broken/worn.
