97 tj tires rub

I have a 97 tj with 33 in mud terrain tires. I have them with off set wheels and a 3 inch body lift but stock suspension. My tires are rubbing on my ridiculous angled lower control arms. Any ideas for a cheap swap or anything else I can do?
 
less backspacing will help, but this is a very common issue. I usully suggest swapping to a tubular LCA so that it doesn't cut the tire up and then just live with it.
 
Not sure what offset but it is pretty close to the edge of the rim. Is there a year jeep that came with the same size control arms but tubular that I could goto a junk yard and grab off?
 
no jeep always used stamped steel control arms, look aftermarket or make them yourself. and get adjustable ones if you go this route.

also adjusting your steering stops helps as well.
