Matt, meet up with me some time this week and I'll tell/show you exactly what you exactly what you need to do for these to fit without rubbing. Pulling doesn't solve all of the problems, and it may create some new ones if you go too much...

That and GO LOWER! If you're going to be running stretched tires and low offsets, adjust the ride height accordingly :P

It's looking nice though

What, it doesn't need more of a pull? I wonder where you got the idea from
