I recently bought a 2002 chevy S10 that i have been trying to get back into running shape. The original tires on the wheels were too small for the truck so I purchased the correct size. The front passenger side centers correctly in the wheel well, but the driver side sits very close towards the back side of the fender. Since I got the tires changed I also hear a clicking noise from the same area...usually when I back up. I could really use some advice. thanks.

Find a shop that specializes in front end alignment, (not the typical tire store or undercar repair shop) and have them check it. Have them specifically check *set back* and check for bent or worn suspension parts such as control arms and control arm bushings.
*Set back is measured on an alignment computer and checks if the steering knuckles are "in line" with each other.*
