Default TF Quick Disconects and tire rub?

So I'm getting some tire rub on TF links when they are in the parked position. It's when the wheel is turned all the way left or right. I have a 2012 JKU Sport, stock no lift, with Rubi wheels and tires.
Is this normal?
Sorry for the newbie question.

Thanks
Kevin.

If you can post of few pics of your installation that may help. Perhaps you installed them wrong? They are really high up and out of the way on my '11.

Well they are a PITA to disconnect, TF is sending me machined downed studs, so I can post pics of them connected and pics of parking studs. Will post pics in a bit.

Are they sending studs for free? I have the same discos on my 12' sure seem tight in there. Not real easy to disconnect, let me know how it goes. Is yours lifted or stock?
