If you're rubbing with that setup your wheels are likely the problem. What are your wheel specs?

Going to be molding mine with a heat gun like I've done on other track cars. I found in some places aft of the strut there's maybe a centimeter of space between the liner and wheel well. Where do you rub?

Take out the spacers or get new wheels with a more positive offset. You can make a cut into where the fender and bumper meet (perpendicular to the fender) which may allow you to roll the fender in more.
