Rubbing on Front Fender Liner Help!

Hey guys I have 18x9.5+30 with a 235/40/18 and on a full rotation left or right I am scraping on the front fender liner. It is not a matter of ride height because it did it at stock height before I put my coilovers on. What is everyone running this setup doing to avoid this, any help would be appreciated!

- Brandon

Edit: Forgot to mention it is an e92

I'm having the same exact issue and it's so frustrating. My last setup did not do this even with spacers which made it virtually the same specs

Yeah I know a lot of people run the same setup as me, I am going to try using my heat gun and use a roller to push it back a little bit and will let you know how it goes. It is just embarrassing when I turn the wheel and the rubbing is loud to the point people turn around to look haha

I appreciate that but I am kind of confused as to what I am looking at? What does cutting that piece do for the fender liner? I am rubbing on the front fender liner where the oil cooler vent would be.. Thanks so much!

What are you cutting in the first pic?

Is this for issue with rubbing of the outside wall of the tire on the outside portion of the fender and portions of the bumper? I rub right where the front bumper and fender meet, right where that bolt is located.
