Default Fender rub and full flex?? Will bumpstops help?

I am running 33's with a Teraflex leveling kit with quick disco's. When I am at full flex...my tires rub the fenders. Should I buy some bumpstops to solve this problem?

Mine did the same. Trimming the fenders fixed the problem.

if you don't want to cut then goto Tflex site and get front and rear bump stops. This will limit up travel.

Just bumpstop it, keep a low center of gravity. A 2.5 with 33's look like a rollerskate.

Or go with flat flares and gain serious fender clearance. Ive got the flat flares and am gonna try to run 35's on stock height with bumptops (once i get the 2 grand for tires and wheels found lol).
