Did a lot of you guys relocate the front bumper/fender tab? My side wall is getting chewed up on my 265.

I am via coil overs. I’m on 19x10.5 + 7 (305R) and 19x9.5 +17 (265F) p front just barely tucking tire. Fenders are rolled, tabs have been cut, liners have been slightly cut as well and it seems like the culprit is the front bumper/fender tab. Just wanted to see how many, or if there people, that have done it.

Well, I ended up cutting out the old fender/bumper tab and relocated the bolt further down about an inch and I am clear. Finally.

Noop, I do get a touch of rubbing on the tabs if I hit a massive bump like the Gravity Cavity on the Dragon.
