Default Mid-Width Bumper & 35's - any rubbing issues at full stuff?

Has anyone run into rubbing problems running a mid-width bumper & 35’s when the wheels are stuffed and at full lock? I’m trying to decide on a front bumper. Soooo many to choose from. I like LoD-Mid, Shrockworks-Stubby, Hanson-Mid&Stubby, and Benchmark-Stubby. Not totally sold on the Hanson and Benchmark because of the top mount winch plate, but I can see some benefits to it.

You definitely won't rub tires on the Benchmark Elite with 35s or even 37s. I have 39.5" tires and don't rub. Of course it depends on your lift, bumpstops, steering stops, wheel backspacing, etc. but with 35-37s you'll be be fine.
