Rear Tires touching 48” deck john deere lx277

Is there a way to adjust the 48” deck forward on a JD LX277 AWS lawn tractor as it touches the rear tires when going straight? There is sufficient gap when turning.

Perhaps you need to adjust the rear toe? Alignment

Stock tires ???? Roger
Bought tires from JD supplier 20x10x10 which is correct for this tractor

I’ll look into that. No idea where to start. Thanks
Did this only start when you replaced the tires? Maybe their diameter is larger than spec. Could be true for cheap tires.

When you replaced the tires are they from the same manufacturer. Did you change from the type of tire. For example from the factory tires to HDAPs or AGs. Roger
This happened on my l111 once when the rear lift linkage came disconnected. It allows the deck to drag further back

There shouldn't be forward/rearward movement or shifting of the deck. With the engine off, push and pull on the deck to see what is loose or broken, allowing it to move.
As a second thought, is the rear steering working as it should? (Assuming you have an AWS machine) It seems odd that straight has a rubbing problem while turns do not. I think I'd still suspect a deck mounting problem.
