advice needed about rims I just bought

So I bought some 22 inch rims for my camaro. I'm noticing how the edge of the rim is starting to rub and the rubber is coming off of the tire. Wshould I watch how fast I'm turning or is there something I need to do to stop this? I really don't want the money I spent to go down the drain. The tires are Lexani lx 20 245/30r22

What are the specs on your wheels? It sounds like you might have the wrong size tires. I only ask since I had bought a used car with an aftermarket set that kept having rubbing/blowouts. It wasn't until I talked to the guys at Tire Rack that I found out the tires weren't wide enough for the rim considering the weight of the car.

I have the wrong size. When I posted this, I talked to one of my car Club members afterwards. Found out the place put the wrong size tire and not the one they actually ordered on my car. So I'm going to have them replace asap. Thanks for your reply.
