2016 PW with Thuren 1.5" front coils and 37x13.50R17 tires. I have bad rubbing of the front tires against the back lower edge of the inner fenderwells (typical location) when turned and flexed out. I've trimmed and bent that area as much as possible without doing serious bodywork, including cutting off the plastic fender liner in that area and cutting and bending the sheetmetal lip flat. I found several options for lowering the front bump stops with the idea of keeping the tires from jamming into the body....I don't mind a little bit of rub but don't want to tear up the tires or actual jam it against the fender. I have seen vehicles either get stuck or break something because the tire is locked up against the body.
Anybody use these or have any suggestions? These are all 2" drops. Do need to double-check measurements, but think 2" would be enough.
These would be my first choice, but may take several weeks to get. Kryptonite 2" extended bump stops for $40. Just replaces the factory bumps.

Metalcloak bump stop spacers. Basically a metal spacer for $120 or so that bolts on and the factory bumps go back in.
