And if you have to have them, cut the flare/fender so you don't rub, and make sure that you reattach that flare WELL!!!  but if you can, take'm off :yupyup:

the only reasons i see for bushwackers are to please the law or for mud-running trucks

Ever thought of redrilling the spring perch and moving the axle forward?
Never mind, looks like your rubbing on front.   More lift, smaller tires of cut it up.  Alot of people wack the lower fender just above the bumper and below the lights.

Cut and trim until it works. There aren't really any other options.
